The Kansas City Chiefs community continues to mourn the loss of legendary quarterback Len Dawson. The team honored Dawson on the field in a recreation of his famous “choir huddle” led by Patrick Mahomes at the start of last Thursday’s preseason game.

The Chiefs will open the Hall of Honor at GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium to the public this Thursday from 1:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. for fans to view a tribute commemorating the life and legacy of Dawson. The event will be open to the public free of charge and guests will have the opportunity to view a tribute on the stadium’s video boards before exiting the stadium at Tower Gate East. Chiefs CEO and Chairman Clark Hunt expressed his thoughts on Thursday’s event and honored the life of Dawson in a press release.

“We believe it’s important to provide Chiefs Kingdom and the Kansas City community an opportunity to honor the life and legacy of Len Dawson,” said Hunt. “My family and I would like to invite fans to celebrate Len’s many contributions to the Chiefs and the game of professional football, as well as his unwavering commitment to his adopted hometown of Kansas City. There is no more revered place inside GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium than the new Hall of Honor, and we believe this will offer a fitting tribute for our great fans to remember one of the true legends of the game.”

“Lenny the Cool” played 13 years in Kansas City and was named MVP of Super Bowl IV. He enjoyed a successful media career after retiring as a player in May 1976, working for both the Chiefs Radio Network and KSHB-TV.
