The Chiefs Kingdom can’t forget the loss the Kansas City Chiefs faced against the New York Giants. It was shocking! Brutal. But Patrick Mahomes made a gesture to uplift the spirits of a young fan; unfortunately, the Giants stole that as well.
During the game, Mahomes sprinted to the stands and handed his throwing sleeve to a young Chiefs fan. The sleeve #15 wears on his throwing arm to protect, warm, and help maintain grip. For a 10-year-old Chiefs fan celebrating his birthday, this was a dream come true.
However, an adult Giants fan, clearly eyeing the prized sleeve, snatched it right from the kid’s hands. The clip shows the Giants fan’s arm in team colors reaching out as Mahomes approaches the crowd, signaling he wanted the sleeve. The kid’s stunned reaction, “You stole that from me,” echoed through online reactions.

THIS IS AWFUL

A #GIANTS FAN STOLE PATRICK MAHOMES’ SLEEVE THAT HE TRIED TO GIVE TO A 10-YEAR-OLD #CHIEFS FAN ON HIS BIRTHDAY.



This is disgusting and completely unfair to this young kid. No adult should ever steal from a child.pic.twitter.com/hxeuKFcWwf

Fans on X quickly tore into the Giants fan’s action. One called it “that’s straight clown behavior stealing from a kid.” Another added, “Typical behavior from that type.” With comments like “That’s awful” and “Wow, what a loser move,” the outrage was palpable.
Mahomes wears his signature sleeve only on his throwing arm. On the other hand, he flashes a WHOOP device to track his performance metrics. That sleeve is part of his game and identity. Giving it away to a kid is sharing a piece of his grit and passion. Theft in that moment feels like it broke the unwritten rule of respect between fans. Giants’ victory hurt, but that gesture disappearing into the wrong hands hurt more.
