Kansas Governor Laura Kelly plans to donate her Super Bowl bet winnings.
In September, Governor Kelly placed a $15 bet, in honor of Patrick Mahomes's jersey number, on the Chiefs to win the Super Bowl. The bet was the first legal sports bet in Kansas. Governor Kelly will donate the $165 in winnings plus the original $15 to Patrick Mahomes's foundation the 15 and Mahomies Foundation. The foundation supports Kansas organizations like Big Brothers, Big Sisters Kansas, Harvesters Community Food Network and the Sunflower House in Shawnee.
Kelly says it turns out the Chiefs are always a good bet. Not only did she win this bet but she won her bet with fellow Governor Josh Shapiro of Pennsylvania.
