On Wednesday, the NFL announced that the Kansas City Chiefs will host the 2023 NFL draft. Naturally there were some... reactions from Chiefs fans.

The NFL Draft wouldn't becoming to Kansas City without the leadership of Kathy Nelson and @SportKC. Kathy and her group started on this plan five years ago. It will be nearly a decade Kathy has worked on landing the NFL Draft when the clock starts in 2023. https://t.co/vrWqJAsFjF

Props to my guy @StevenACowen here he was all the way back in 2014 trying to get KC to land the NFL Draft. And he mentioned it to me long before this tweet. https://t.co/K28Fsx64sH

Hopefully we will be picking last in that draft

If the Chiefs can win the draft then they can win the Super Bowl

There's a non-zero chance that 2023 will be the first time Veach makes a first round selection as GM of the Chiefs.

"With the 32nd pick in the 2023 NFL Draft, the Kansas City Chiefs select Akeem Dent, cornerback from Florida State."

The draft in KC is going to be epic. People from all over the country will finally taste what real BBQ is.

The NFL has four years to come up with a good draft hat for 2023. pic.twitter.com/INGGVPz4DQ

In 2023, KC will host the NFL draft and their 5th straight AFC championship game

I’m good with this deal https://t.co/NU0P99P1Kp

I credit the ketchup eater for this. NFL knows KC is about to win big.

"I think you can send Patrick Mahomes a Christmas card. Because I don't think KC gets the draft without him. He has re-energized that city... The NFL recognizes what it has in Mahomes, and they're rallying behind it." - @nfldraftscout on #TheDrive. pic.twitter.com/4YgUPGqmU2

I think it’s a really smart move by Kansas City not to fall prey to any temptation to imitate Nashville and hold the draft at power and light. The union station setting is picturesque and while it may not be as much of a party atmosphere, it will be KC’s unique spin on the draft. https://t.co/LJ22sYkFUC

I'll never forget the image of that area packed with people at the end of the Royals World Series parade. https://t.co/UQMEyMWMpJ
If you're thinking about coming to KC for the 2023 American Football Organization That We Can't Name draft, just remember it's never too early to start planning what you want to do while you're here, particularly where you want to drink *COUGH COUGH*

Wait, we got the NFL draft AND the AFOTWCN Draft in the same year?! Bonkers
— Ryan Sloop (@RSloop_ATC) May 22, 2019
And 56 years later to the day, the NFL names Kansas City the host of the 2023 NFL Draft. Lamar would’ve loved it. #ChiefsKingdom https://t.co/jNb8lcUWt7
