Court filing seeks permission to attend seven games
Pat Mahomes Sr. has filed a motion asking a Texas court for approval to travel out of state to attend seven Kansas City Chiefs games this season, the filing shows. Mahomes Sr. is currently on probation following a 2024 DWI conviction and the petition requests permission specifically for games in Kansas City, Las Vegas and Cincinnati.
Court records show Mahomes Sr., who is on probation following a 2024 DWI conviction, filed a motion seeking approval to attend seven Chiefs games in Kansas City, Las Vegas and Cincinnati.
Legal background and current status
Mahomes Sr. pleaded guilty in August 2024 to his third driving‑while‑intoxicated charge and is currently on probation.
Court records included in the filing show he sought permission to travel to multiple Chiefs games; no ruling on the motion was reported as of Sunday afternoon and the request remained pending.
No ruling on the recent travel motion had been reported as of Sunday afternoon, and the request remains pending.
Attendance far from guaranteed as judge weighs request
People reported that Mahomes Sr. is “hoping the court will allow him” to make the trips during the 2026 season. The filing is a procedural step and does not guarantee he will attend the games.
The timing comes as the Chiefs open the 2026 season, which will mark Patrick Mahomes' first game back after he suffered torn ACL and LCL injuries late last season. Availability has been a storyline entering the opener: Josh Simmons has been sidelined with a lower back injury and is not expected to play.
Whether Mahomes Sr. will be permitted to travel to those games depends on the court's review; no ruling had been reported and the request remained pending.
