Football fans made jokes about the mechanical way Chiefs owner Clark Hunt gave his victory speech on Sunday after Kansas City beat the Bills in the AFC championship game.

Hunt addressed the fans inside Arrowhead Stadium as well as the national TV audience expressing his excitement over the 32-29 win.

“Chiefs Kingdom, we’re going to New Orleans to create history,” Hunt stated during the victory celebration on stage.

But for some, the speech came off a bit like a “robot,” as one person described it. 

“Clark Hunt is AI bro,” one person wrote on X. 

“Clark Hunt totally memorized that speech,” another person wrote. 

“Two questions 1 – Is Clark Hunt a tiny, tiny man? 2 – How many times did he practice that speech in the mirror?” a third person joked online.

“Clark Hunt is a robot,” someone else said.

Hunt is accustomed to being on stage as the Chiefs have become a dominant force in the NFL, aiming for their historic third consecutive Super Bowl win when they play the Eagles in a couple of weeks.

“Every one of these is so special,” Hunt said. “What a game today. Travis (Kelce), Patrick (Mahomes) and their teammates always find a way to get it done. That was true this whole year. And it’s a credit to coach (Andy) Reid and his amazing staff. Now we get to do something that’s never been done before, Chiefs Kingdom.”

The Chiefs have already made history without the chance for the team to complete the three-peat. 

Kansas City became the first team in NFL history to play in five Super Bowls in a six-year span and became the first back-to-back champion to return to the Super Bowl. 

A win on Feb. 9 against the Eagles would make the Chiefs the first team to win three consecutive Super Bowl titles in NFL history and it would make them the only other team – aside from the 1974-79 Steelers – to win four Super Bowls in six years.
