Ron, Ryan and Sam Springer said their trip to Arizona was unforgettable. They are big Kansas City Chiefs fans and couldn’t believe the victory they got to witness.
“Super Bowl, super costly but the experience priceless,” Ryan Springer shared.
The Springer represent three generations of their family. They said they were living every football fans dream, while creating memories daily centered around they sport they love.
“We were in Scottsdale Friday, we went to the Super Bowl Experience together, he got to build his own football and then tailgate and the game together, this is the only time we've done a trip like this,” he added.
They captured kodak moments along the way and never ignored one thing in particular, even acknowledging Arizona's hospitality.
“The way people treated us here, everybody has treated us really nice,” said Ryan Springer. “It was very friendly, people were great so it's just been an awesome weekend.”
