Moments are temporary. Home videos are forever.
Once upon a time, a four-year-old Texas native was filmed singing the popular Christmas tune, ‘Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer.’ While maybe not a performance worthy of a chair turn on NBC’s ‘The Voice,’ or a ticket to Hollywood on ‘American Idol,’ the future would be kind to this child.
That child would become the Kansas City Chiefs’ three-time Super Bowl MVP quarterback, Patrick Mahomes.
Since seeing is believing, here’s a look at the video.
Patrick Mahomes singing ‘Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer’
In a video recorded on Dec. 25, 1999, Mahomes was in the Christmas spirit, singing an ode to the reindeer who guided Santa’s sleigh. The video might be a little rough around the edges, but that’s just part of the magic that home videos capture.

While Dasher, Dancer, Prancer, Vixen, Comet, Cupid, Donner, Blitzen and Rudolph have always been known as the famous reindeer, Mahomes is now calling on his Chiefs teammates in a similar role.
There is no naughty or nice list, no big lists of gifts, but just one wish this Christmas for the Chiefs. They want to be champions for a third consecutive season. Playing the Santa spot in K.C.’s offense, Mahomes is ready to deliver in yet another season of success.
Mahomes, now age 29, is singing a new tune.
Now, Pacheco! Now, Hopkins! Now, Worthy and Brown! On, Kelce! On Gray! On, JuJu and Watson!
To the top of the league! To the top of it all! Now win, win and win it all!
