You're listening to KFI AM six forty wake Up Call with me Amy King on
demand on the iHeartRadio app. I'm Heather Brooker in for Amy King. Good
morning and happy Monday. I don't know, do people like it when you
say that happy Monday? Well I'm saying it. Thank you guys for joining
us. Good morning to Tony and An. We've got all our crew here
today and it's going to be a great morning and I hope it's a great
week for you as well. So thank you so much for joining us.
Let's get right into it, shall we. I am a little bit,
I want to say hungover because I stayed up late last night and I watched
the Super Bowl and it went into overtime and I was not expecting that,
but it was worth it. I stayed up and watched it. So,
as you can imagine, we're going to have a lot of Super Bowl post
Super Bowl coverage today on wake Up Call. The Kansas City Chiefs have won
the Super Bowl fifty eight, and we'll hear from head coach Jannie Reid and
Patrick Mahomes about why they think what they think helped them win, and then
we're going to find out more details about the Equid church shooting that happened yesterday
afternoon in Houston, Texas. And a new poll shows that most Americans believe
both President Biden and Trump are too old for another term. Then at six
p' oh five, it's Handle on the news. Did the Chiefs just create
a dynasty? We're going to talk to Wayne Resident, who is in for
Bill Handle this morning, to hear what he thinks. But let's get started
with some of the stories coming out of the campf I twenty four hour newsroom.
A Chase Kingnam has started its own history class. Kansas City Chiefs have
won back to back Super Bowls. They beat the San Francisco forty nine Ers
twenty five to twenty two last night in overtime. It's the third time in
five seasons that the Chiefs quarterback the Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes has led his team
to take home the Vince Lombardi Trophy. I think we just kept fighting.
I mean, at at end of the day, it wasn't like we caught
a lot of different plays. We stayed within our offense kind of like we
did all year long, and guys just continue to battle and that was kind
of our season. Chief coach Andy Reid told reporters the game could have gone
either way as both teams kept taking the lead during the second half. It
was a very exciting game and of course Super Bowl was also packed with celebrities.
Taylor Swift was there to support her boyfriend Chiefs Titaned, Travis Kelce and
the camera Cutaway do other stars like Leonardo DiCaprio, Beyonce and jay Z,
Kelly Clarkson, and Paul Rudd, just to name a few of the big
names in attendance. And then R and B star Usher performed a mashup of
his hits for the halftime show, and he did it while he was on
roller skates for part of the performance. Very impressive there. Usher brought out
some of his famous friends like her Alicia, Keys, Lil John and Ludacris,
and despite some audio issues in the beginning of the show, Usher finished
strong. He has a new album coming out for the first time in eight
years, called Coming Home. All right, let's get to some non Super
Bowl related news. The co founder of Nigeria's biggest bank has been killed in
a helicopter crash near the Mojave National in San Bornino County. Five others aboard
the helicopter Friday night were also killed in a crash which was seen by people
driving on the fifteen near Baker. The aircraft had taken off from Palm Springs
and was headed to Boulder City, Nevada. CHP logs show there was rain
and snow in the area at the time of the crash. A woman in
Texas who walked into Joel Ostein's megachurch in Houston with a gun and a with
a child has been shot and killed by two off duty officers. Police Chief
Troy Finner says the woman walked into church just before a Spanish speaking service yesterday.
She was armed with a long rifle and a trench coat with the backpack,
He says, at some point the woman started shooting. A man in
his fifties was hit. He survived. The boy who walked into the church
with her was also shot and he is in critical condition. Let's get back
to some of the stories coming out of the KFI twenty four hour newsroom.
As we mentioned, a woman walked into Joel Ostine's Church in Houston, Texas,
sony afternoon and started shooting. ABC's Jim Ryan joins his life from Dallas
with the latest. Good morning, Jim, so no much more of this
morning than we did yesterday afternoon. The police have not yet identified the woman
who carried this out. She in their early thirties, it's thought, walked
into that church, Lakewood Church in southwest Houston. Had a child with her,
five or six year old little boy wearing a trench coat on a warm
Sunday afternoon in Houston. She opened that coat, pulled out a rifle,
fired off at least one shot. Among the many people that are thousands who
were coming to the two o'clock Spanish language service were a couple of off duty
law enforcers, one a Houston police officer, the other a State Alcohol Control
Board officer also registered to carry again. They engaged her, They shot and
killed her before she died. According to the police chief, the woman said
that she had a bomb. The search was done of the backpack she was
wearing out of the car in the parking lot. No explode were found.
Tragically, though, the little boy who was with this woman also was hit
during this exchange of gunfire. He was in critical condition yesterday afternoon. We
haven't had any kind of an update on what his condition is today, Amy,
So it's Heather. I'm I'm saying if I mean, that's okay.
So here's you know. One of the things I was wondering is I was
reading about some of the off the off duty officers that were there, and
they aren't saying if the young boy was hit by the woman who walked in
with him or by the officers. Do you think that there's a possibility there
he might have been hit by some of the crossfire. It is possible either
by the shot fired by the woman or shots fired by those police officers.
That's a huge question who fired those shots? Now that the Houston police officer
is on administrative leave, undoubtedly that state agent also is on leave now while
the investigation is underway. But just so many questions. What was this woman's
motivation? Was this a targeted thing? Did she have some problem with Hispanics?
Again, this was a Spanish language service that was about to start,
and we just don't know yet had there any of those things? So a
lot of questions to be answered today, we hope now. Pastor Joel Ostein
is one of the most well known televangelists, you know, pastors of these
megachurches and he made some statements and comments after the incident yesterday. What did
he have to say, Yes, mainly offering support, certainly for the first
responders who showed up at that church. He was not conducting that service.
It was a Spanish language service and someone else was going to perform the service,
so he wasn't directly on site when this all happened, but certainly was
offering the prayers of this congregation of about forty five thousand members for the woman
who was killed, for the child, for the first responders. There's also
a man, a bystander who was hit in the leg. He was taken
to the hospital. He's expected to be okay at some point released. He
may have in fact been released overnight. But yeah, So that's what Ostein
had to say after this all, after the smoke had cleared and a briefing
was held outside the church. Heather, do you think that this incident,
which you know, there have been several church type shootings in the past few
as many years, several years, do you think that this is going to
raise concern for churches now to start adding an increased security. Oh, yes,
you know, I think every time we have one of these happened.
I mean the one that happened at Sutherland Springs Taxes down by San Antonio and
a little chapel there. There was one here in the Dallas Fort Worth area
some time after that, a man who had walked into a church and open
fire, killing someone before he was killed. And I think every time this
happens, it raises alarms for churches and they start looking at their security systems
and what's in place. I was surprised that it was so easy for this
woman to walk into this church. Now totally they don't have metal detectors or
security well, especially because it's such a large church with so many people.
Yeah, yeah, I mean it's a huge place. It was once a
city auditorium. I mean an enormous facility to try to monitor everybody who's coming
and going. But yeah, I suspect that from megachurch to tiny chapels,
churches will start again taking a second look at their own security procedures, maybe
reevalue doing some reevaluating there. That is an unfortunate situation to be in where
it feels like as Americans, we can't be safe anywhere, right. Thank
you so much for your time this morning. Thanks Heather, all right,
let's get back to some of the stories coming out of the KFI twenty four
hour newsroom. At least three men have been stabbed during a large brawl at
a motorcycle festival at the Ventura County Fairgrounds. Police got several nine to one
one calls yesterday that a person had been stabbed during Chopperfest. Police found two
injured men and paramedics took them to the hospital. The third man was able
to get the same hospital on his own. No arrests were made. A
couple from Sanbordino County have pleaded guilty to causing a brush fire in twenty twenty
that killed a Forest Service firefighter. It all stems from a gender revealed party
that got out of hand, sparking a massive wildfire that burned nearly twenty three
thousand acres in the Inland Empire. On Friday, prosecutor say Refugio Jmenez Junior
pleaded guilty to several charges, including involuntary manslaughter for the death of a firefighter.
At the time of their arrest, the couple was facing nearly twenty years
behind bars. Amenez Junior will serve one year in county jail, two years
felony probation in two hundred hours of community service. His wife, who pleaded
guilty to three misdemeanors, will serve one year probation in four hundred hours of
community service. Andrew Caravella Kafi News The couple will also have to pay more
than one point seven million dollars in damages. Rescue crews have discovered Rescue crews
have recovered the body of a woman who had been reported missing on Mount Baldy.
The woman had gone hiking early last week as those big story worms moved
in. A person told the US Forest Service Saturday they believed they had spotted
the woman from a drone. Deputies and search and rescue crews were dispatched,
but they couldn't get to the area because conditions were not safe. The Sheriff's
Department air rescue helicopter recovered the body early yesterday. Three people have survived a
plane crash in Florida that killed the pilot and co pilot. The private jet
from Ohio slammed into a highway Friday. ABC's Derek Dennis says the pilot had
calmly told an airport controller of the aircraft was not going to make the runway
because it had lost both engines. Investigators have determined the plane did not run
out of fuel, saying that fire was from the fuel on board. They
see a bird strike or some mechanical failure could be the cause. The plane
was headed for the airport in Naples when they tried to make an emergency landing
on Interstate seventy five. The Israeli military has rescued two hostages in Gaza during
a raid in which at least sixty seven Palestinians were killed. The sixty and
seven year old men rescued were among the hundreds of people taken when Hamas attacked
in October. ABC's Jordana Miller says the raid early this morning was in the
southern border town of Rafa. Israeli Army says commandos stormed the second floor apartment,
some protecting the hostages with their own bodies, while others killed their captors.
One woman says one of the men rescued is her uncle. It was
very emotional to see them, to hug them, to fill them. It
feels almost unreal. Israel says about one hundred hostages remain in Hamas captivity,
as well as the remains of about thirty others. President Biden has been warned
Israel. President Biden has warned Israel against a ground operation in Rafa. The
White House says comments from former President Trump about not protecting NATO countries are appalling
and unhinged. Trump said at a campaign rally Saturday that NATO was busted before
he became president, and that he told members of the US would not protect
them if they didn't pay their share. He said, the president of one
country asked him about the scenario. I said, you didn't pay your delinquent.
He said, yes, let's say that happened. No, I would
not protect you. In fact, I would encourage them to do whatever the
hell they want. You gotta pay, you gotta pay your bills. Republican
presidential candidate Nikki Hayley says, yes, the US wants members to pay more,
but that is not the way you get them to do it. When
we come back, are the presidential nominees too old for office? We're going
to talk about it. You're listening to Wake Up Call on demand from KFI
AM six forty. The State Attorney General's office says it will not retry the
former LAPED officer who fatally shot a man at a Costco store in Corona.
Rescue crews have recovered the body of a woman who had been reported missing on
Mount Baldy, and Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes is getting a parade at Disneyland after
his big Super Bowl win. Then at six five, I have its handle
on the news. Are you skipping work today because of the Super Bowl flu?
We we'll tell you why millions of Americans are afflicted with this illness after
the Super Bowl. Then at five fifty, we're going to dive into those
super Bowl details. But right now, let's talk about President Biden's personal attorney.
He's raising concerns over the report from special counsel Robert Hurr, calling it
a shabby piece of work. ABC's Oh, I'm sorry, we have who
do we have Karen? Do we have Karen? Did you say, oh,
Karen, I'm so sorry? Hello, good morning, Good morning?
All right, So I started to toss to you I believe the wrong story
this morning. That's okay, it's been a day. Everybody's a little tired
from football. No joke about the Super Bowl. Yeah, it is a
real problem. And I actually have a kid home sick from school. Today,
Like when you said super Bowl flu, I'm like, is he faking?
Maybe? I don't think so. Definitely, Maybe you're onto something too
many last night, me too, me too? All right, So let's
talk about this. This this story is actually something that I talk about quite
a bit. Americans think that Biden and Trump are too old for another term.
What is this poll saying? Yeah? So, this was an ABC
News IPSOS poll that came out yesterday that found an overwhelming majority of Americans think
the president's too old to serve another term. Eighty six percent of Americans think
that of the president, he's eighty one years old. And this is obviously
something that is deeply concerning to so many people, and something that the Biden
campaign says that they are aware of. They know this is not new,
but it's something they're going to have to deal with over the next ten months.
The notable thing to in this poll is that sixty two percent of Americans
think Donald Trump, who's seventy seven years old, he's also too old to
serve as president, less than the number of people, of course, for
the president. But still it's not like people are saying he is, you
know, some youthful spring chicken. The interesting thing here is that there's a
very large difference in the partisan view of the respective nominees. Seventy three percent
of Democrats think that Joe Biden's too old to serve, but only thirty five
percent of Republicans think the same about Donald Trump. So you know where that
is coming from. Why Democrats are so much more worried concerned versus Republicans who
maybe are just brushing it off or more loyal. It's just an interesting number
as we head into the selection season. Now, you know what's interesting here
is it's not just their age that is being called in a question, it's
the it's their memory. And you know, specifically Biden's being questioned because he
couldn't remember when his son Bo died when he was being questioned by Special counsel.
Is that a fair assessment or marker of his memory. The White House
and the President himself will say absolutely not. They were very upset about this
last week when the Special Council report came out. You know, the legal
issues were done for him. It said that you know, there was no
prosecute, that the evidence doesn't establish the President's guilt beyond a reasonable doubt about
his keeping and retaining of colassified materials. So for the president, he said
on that, you know, the matter is closed, but the political damage
could be potential extending now from this because the report took notable how it laid
out some of the issues it saw with the president's recollection. It described his
recollection as painfully slow, his memory hazy, significantly limited, and said that
one of the considerations was, you know, not doing charges and thinking of
it as that the president would likely present himself to a jury as a sympathetic,
well meaning elderly man with a poor memory. So okay, good,
you're not getting charged because of how that would play out for you. But
bad because one of the reasons is because they think you're too old to do,
you know, to be on the stand. Interesting. You know,
you talked to some legal analysts. We had Dan Abrams last week who was
saying, you know, in some way, that might be worse than charges
if you have this baked in in American's mind, that you know, you're
too old, that you can't remember things during interviews like this. The President
fired back, He said his memory is fine. He was very frustrated that
that was so political in the report, Kamala Harris also fired back on that
and said that it was politically motivated, and she took issue with the characterization
of the president and said it was just inaccurate. So the White House is
going to continue pushing back, but I think they're hoping that the whole thing
just kind of fades from people's memories. Well, and I think that will
be interesting to see over the next several months as well, just what kind
of impact this will have, because honestly, it looks like we may only
have two choices now, no disrespect to Nikki Haley, but we may only
have two choices when it comes to the big election and questions of memory and
age. At that point, it's like, you know, I don't I
know, people use the term lesser of two evils, but the less and
that's you know, if the campaign is going to make as you know,
it's not going to be a referendum in their view on Joe Biden and his
policies and do you love Joe Biden because they look at the polls and know
that that's not how people are feeling right now. They're going to make this
a choice between Joe Biden and Donald Trump and They're going to try to drive
up Donald Trump's negatives, and they feel that that's an election they can win
because they've won it before in twenty twenty. And they also feel that people
have been paying attention to Donald Trump over the last three years, and if
they start shining a spotlight on some of the things he has been saying and
continues to say, the negatives are just going to go up. No,
I think you're absolutely right. Well, Karen, I know you have to
go, and I hope your son feels better. Thank you very much,
thank me saling me right now. No more doritos, no more. All
right, thank you so much for your time. All right, let's get
back to some of the stories coming out of the KFI twenty four hour newsroom.
Two people have been shot at a party in the Hollywood Hills. They
are expected to be okay. Neighbors say the house where it happened is an
Airbnb and the people the party are said to be from Chicago. The shooting
happened after a fight last night that spilled out into the street and two people
were detained. A woman in Texas who walked into Joel Ostein's megachurch in Houston
with a gun and a child with her has been fatally shot by two off
duty officers. Police Chief Troy Finner says the woman walked into the church just
before a Spanish speaking service yesterday. She was armed with a long rifle and
a trench coat with the backpack. Pastor Joel Ostein says the church is devastated
by the shooting. Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin is back in the hospital. This
is Secretary Austin's second hospitalization this year. He's been admitted to the critical Care
Unit and Walter Reed Army Medical Center, described as something similar to an intensive
care unit. ABC's m Nownn says, according to The Pentagon, Austin was
admitted yesterday for bladder issues. He's currently being treated for prostate cancer when we
come back. President Biden's attorney has raised concerns over her report. We talked
about that just a few moments ago a little bit with Karen Travers, but
we're going to dive into that a little bit. More southlind weather from CAFI
sunny today, with highs in the mid to upper sixties in Metro La Inland
and OC. Highs will reach the mid sixties on Tuesday, and highs will
be in the lod to mid fifties in the Annalope Valley and reached the upper
sixties in Riverside and the Ie. Right now, it's forty four in Burbank
forty seven in Redondo Beach. You're listening to Wake Up Call on demand from
KFI AM six forty. Here's what we're following in the KFI twenty four hour
newsroom. A woman in Texas who walked into Joel Osceine's megachurch in Houston with
a gun and with a child has been shot and killed by two off duty
officers, and at least three men have been stabbed during a large brawl at
a motorcycle festival at the Ventura County Fairgrounds. And the Israeli military has rescued
two hostages in Gaza during a raid in which at least sixties seven Palestinians were
killed. The sixty and seven year old men rescued were among the hundreds of
people taken when Hamas attacked Israel in October. And at six ZHO five,
it's handle on the news. The Super Bowl was powered by Nevada Solar Farm,
making it a historic green milestone for the NFL, and at five point
fifty will dive into the Super Bowl details. Oh yes, the highlights and
memorable moments that you might have missed from the big Game. But let's get
back to some of the stories coming out of the KFI twenty four hour newsroom.
A Chase kgnum has started its own history class. That's right, the
Kansas City Chiefs have won back to back Super Bowls. They beat the San
Francisco forty nine Ers twenty two, twenty five to twenty two last night in
overtime. It is the third time in five seasons that Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes
has led his team to take home the Vince Lombardi Trophy. I think we
just kept fiden. I mean, at the end of the day, it
wasn't like we call a lot of different plays. We stayed within our offense,
kind of like we did all year long, and guys just continued to
battle and that was kind of our whole season. Chiefs coach Andy Reid told
reporters the game could have gone either way as both teams kept taking the lead
during the second half. President Biden's personal attorney has raised some concerns over the
report from Special Counsel Robert Hurr, calling it quote a shabby piece of work.
ABC Steven Portnoy joins us live from Washington with more. Good morning,
Stephen, Oh, good morning to you. All Right. So what are
the things that are being called into question in this report, Well, mainly
it's the argument that Robert Hurr makes that Joe Biden has a failing memory,
that he's an elderly man who would appear sympathetic before a jury but simply can't
remember key details such as the years he served as vice president or the year
his son Bo died. Now, President Biden reacted angrily to that last Thursday
night, and since his aides and his allies have been engaged in a coordinated
pushback of the report. You had the Vice President Kamala Harris calling it gratuitous
and inappropriate and even politically motivated. And yesterday Bob Bauer, the President's personal
lawyer, who was in that interview that Robert Hurr conducted with the President in
October, said that it just doesn't comport with what he saw happen before his
own eyes. Now. Bob Bauer also said that he asked the Attorney General,
Merrick Garland to make edits to the report before it was released. Obviously
that request was denied, but that was a revelation made yesterday in an interview
on CBS where Bob Bauer said that they were so struck by what her had
written that they asked for a revision, and that's an extraordinary thing to ask
for something that had to come out of a report, and the report was
turned out. Overall, the key takeaway was that Joe Biden retained information in
classified classified information in handwritten notes, mainly that he had there inadvertently. There
were some classified papers that were apparently put up in boxes by his aids that
wound up in his either in his basement or at the pen Biden Center here
in Washington, or even from his time in the Senate at the University of
Delaware. But the wilfulness really points to the information that Biden kept in handwritten
notebooks that he shared with a ghostwriter. And while he insists that he didn't
share classified information with the ghostwriter, the report indicates that it was at the
time Biden's understanding that he had classified information in front of him, and the
idea is that he shouldn't have. Now the White House shrugs that off by
saying, well, all of Joe Biden's predecessors have done this. There's no
evidence of that, except in the case of Ronald Reagan, when he had
his own diary from his time in the White House that it contained information that
was later deemed classified by the Way in twenty seventeen. When he left the
White House. Joe Biden was not a former president. He's still not a
former president. He's never been a former president. He was a former vice
president, and his predecessors would have included Dick Cheney, Al Gore, and
Dan Quayle, not Ronald Reagan. But the argument remains that there ought to
be some understanding that these prominent men who have access to classified materials often,
if not at least sometimes take notes on it and bring it home to keep
for their own records. Ultimately, there was a motivation for Joe Biden here
that is explored in part in her report, and that is that he wanted
to write a book. And the two reasons for that one you establish yourself
on the national stage of someone who might put himself forward for president again,
as Joe Biden did, and the other reason prophet motivation, you want to
sell that book, But the book didn't apparently contain any classified information, And
so Her said, because he viewed Joe Biden as a sympathetic figure who would
offer his own explanation to a jury, it wasn't likely that her would be
able to get a conviction even if Joe Biden weren't a sitting president. Justice
Department policy prohibits an indictment of a sitting president. So the first thing that
I think, you know a lot of people think of, and I certainly
did, is how is this classified information case against Biden different than the one
against Trump. Well, look, the straightforward answer is that Donald Trump is
charged with obstructing justice. That he didn't just happen to have classified information on
hand at mar A Lago. Allegedly, it's that he sought to keep it
from being turned back over to the government when the government came calling for it,
and that he at a certain point, it's alleged had his staff move
boxes around mar A Lago so that his attorneys couldn't find the boxes. And
it's also alleged that Donald Trump sought to have evidence of the boxes being moved
around destroyed. All of this in the indictment brought by the Special Counsel Jack
Smith. That's actually the subject of a hearing today in Fort Pierce, Florida.
The former president Donald Trump's expected to sit in on that hearing. So
the substant of difference is not just a wilful retention of classified information, and
there's some evidence that Joe Biden wilfully retained it and other parts of her report.
It's more exculpatory. But in the case of Donald Trump, he didn't
turn the documents over. He sought to keep them allegedly and sought to obstruct
justice by trying to block the government's investigation and lie to his own attorneys about
it. All right, so let's talk about ultimately, you know, what
they probably were fighting for and why they were trying so hard to keep some
of this information out of the report. What effect will this report have on
Biden's presidential campaign? Eighty six percent of the country in our ABC News Zipsos
poll over the weekend so that they believe that Joe Biden is too old to
be president for the next five years. That poll also indicates most Americans believe
that Donald Trump is too old to be president for at least the next five
years. However, that is not necessarily, you know, going to prevent
the people from making that choice one or the other. And so I think
Joe Biden and his allies and aids and surrogates are now increasingly saying, look,
the man is eighty one. It is what it is. But look
at what he's done, look at how effective he can be, look at
how much he cares about the country, look at what a decent man he
is, and look at the alternative. And that is the argument that they're
going to continue to make for the next ten months. All right, that
is such great information. So here's my question. Do you prefer Steve or
Steven? I've been wanting to ask you that. Well, you know,
it depends. Are weaving or are we just hanging out? Are we on
the air? Now? Steven is probably the best. Is my mother calls
me, oh okay, all right. Always good to know. I always
like to check because I you know, I don't want to be too casual.
Sure, but thank you so much, such great information. Have a
wonderful morning. All right, let's get back to some of the stories coming
out of the KFI twenty four hour newsroom. The co founder of Nigeria's biggest
bank has been killed in a helicopter c near the Mojave National Preserve in San
Bernardino County. Five others aboard the helicopter Friday night were also killed in the

what we're following in the KFI twenty four hour newsroom. Two people have been
shot at a party in the Hollywood Hills, but they are expected to be
okay. We'll have more details on that later. Health officials in Gaza say
more than twelve thousand Palestinian kids have been killed in the war between Israel and
Hamas. The Health Ministry has previously said more than twenty five thousand Palestinians have
been killed in the fighting, and Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin is back in the
hospital, officials say. According to The Pentagon, Austin was admitted yesterday afternoon
for a bladder issue. And we're just minutes away from handle on the news
this morning. And you won't believe what happens to the puppies after the puppy
bowl. We're gonna break that all down for you with Wayne when he's here.
All right, let's get back to some of the stories coming out of
the KFI twenty four hour newsroom. At least three men have been stabbed during
a large brawl at a motorcycle festival in Venturre at the Vatura County Fairgrounds.
Police got several nine to one to one calls yesterday that a person had been
stabbed during Chopperfest. Police found two injured men and paramedics took them to the
hospital. A third man was able to get to the same hospital on his
own. No arrests were made. A couple from San Bernardino County have pleaded
guilty to causing a brush fire in twenty twenty that killed a Force service firefighter.
It all stems from a gender revealed party that got out of hand,

Now, I don't know about you, but I stayed up late,
even though I had to be up really early this morning to watch the Super
Bowl in overtime, and I'm feeling it this morning, but it was totally
worth it. ABC's Alex Stone joins US Live from Las Vegas. Good morning,
Alex do you have a little bit of a Super Bowl hangover? I
think I do. I think a lot of people here in Vegas are going
to. I walked through the casino at Mandalay Bay a few minutes ago and
it is still rocking right now. Still people who are they've still got all
their chief skier on and security when running by me a few minutes ago,
like four or five security guards. So something's going on. I get the
bar. There's a fight or something, but the bars are full. The
casino is full. You know, Heather, this city was built for this,
and it went so smoothly when the super Bowl is in Phoenix, or
in San Francisco or even in La Now that you end up having to take
buses from where everything is in a downtown area and then with the NFL experience
where the hotels are and get on those buses and then wait for buses at
the end and get back to your hotel, and then food is already closed
up and there's nothing there nothing to do but go back to hotel room or
go find bar that is open here in Vegas. I called my wife last
night as I was walking back, saying, this is amazing that I walk
out of a Legiance Stadium, walk over a bridge, and I'm on the
Vegas Stretch and back of the hotel and all the restaurants are open and they
know how to do crowd control and everything. The NFL has said that it's
going to hold the game here over and over again. It will be kind
of a permanent home with some other cities peppered in there, shutting in LA.
But it worked really well, and after shunning Vegas for so long,
the NFL is all in and for good reason that this city works really well
for what they want to do. Yeah, the one thing I saw that
the only hiccup that I saw was people were saying that there was just wall
to wall cars on the strip, like back to cars on the strip.
But I'm like, who's that way on a Saturday night normally? But but
yeah, you're right. I tried to get an uber to go down to
Wind to meet up with somebody on Friday night, and it took forever,
but we finally got there. Yeah, you get here eventually. All right,
So let's talk about some of the most memorable moments of the game last
night. Yeah, So, I mean it started slow and going into the
half, it seemed like the Niners defense was just too much for the Chiefs
and that maybe this was going to be the Niners year redo from twenty twenty,
the last time the Chiefs and the forty nine ers were in it,
and maybe they were gonna get redemption. But boy, things changed after halftime
and then to see kind of a ping pong match of scoring and then in
the end in overtime, only the second time in Super Bowl history, but
there was so much passion and excitement in the stadium. This is what it
sounded like for hours afterwards. This was going on. Normally they kick fans
out half an hour forty five minutes after the game, they just let them
go. And the Chiefs fans were doing it the chop for hours and hours,
and even Patrick Mahomes was on the field for probably a good hour before
he went off the field and went back into the locker room. And the
players were celebrating on the field, the families were there, and the fans
just kind of went down into two field level into the seats and sat there
taking pictures and drinking beer. And Joe and Erica she was not drinking beer.
You'll hear why from Columbia Missouri, and she says it was a special
night all around. I actually just told my mom tonight that I am pregnant
with my first child. So then winning was like a too, you know,
a double waving for me to learn. Thank you, thank you very
much. And her mom was standing there crying, not only because of the
baby, but also because the Chiefs win that they are lifelong Chiefs fans.
This guy was collecting confetti, filling a baggie full of it to bring home
to his buddies in Kansas City. Oh good baby, I've been to all
four of them, so this is awesome. Man. I'm glad I spent
the money and came out and had There are a lot of celebrities in the
house. I'm just a long list of who was here. And then of
course Usher the halftime show, which was fine. I don't think a lot
of people ten years from now are going to say remember Usher and how amazing
that was. And he had Alicia Keys and her and Little John and Luda
Chris. But when it was done, everybody in the stadium kind of went
okay, and they went to the bathroom and then got a hot dog and
got ready for the second half and then moved on. Yeah, I mean
that was sort of like, I don't want to say lackluster, because I
mean I feel like I saw him working and he was giving it as all,
but it just was missing a little something for me. Yeah, it
was this single long experience and he wanted he wanted to do it all live,
which it sounded live. It sounded like there were audio problems, yes,
on the loud speaker. It just didn't sound right, you know.
Yeah, Yeah, something was and it didn't sound like the studio, which
it wasn't. He wasn't in the studio, but but it was just a
little bit off in that way. Uh, And everybody was kind of singing.
It was so loud it was almost hard to understand what he was saying
in the in the song. But they gave us these light up necklaces to
wear and to make the crowd light up. Mine is sitting in front of
me right now. It's still lighting up different colors. I don't know when
it's gonna turn off fairly, I'm still part of Usher's halftime show this morning
because there's no off button on it. It's still going or I'm being tracked.
I don't know. The party never stops. Right, I have one
more question for you before we go. I feel like a lot of people
there was a lot of expectation on Travis Kelcey last night, but it seemed
like he had a more action on the sidelines than he did during the game.
Did we ever find out what he was That whole interaction between him and
coach Reid was about. Did you hear anything about why he was getting so
upset with him? Yeah, it was the turnover that he didn't like.
He didn't like the call, and maybe he wanted it challenged. I don't
know, but they both are kind of brushing that off now. But it
did go viral, the photo and the video of him bumping him and then
yelling at you just don't do that. No, that's not okay. But
he did talk about it to our partner's ESPN saying, you know what,
he was passionate in that moment. He told them this man, I was
fired up. Man, I was fired up, and we weren't hitting on
all cylinders. And I had to give Big Red a love tap there and
I let him know that we were all here fighting for him no matter what,
Big Red give him a love tab. I would say, there's a
little mound the love tab. He almost knocked him over. Yeah. I
was like, oh my gosh. Yeah, they do have an interesting relationship.
They've been working together for a very long time. Kelsey had a very
good second half, made a lot of catches. So they've got their deal.
Have they not won, maybe their discussion would have been a little bit
different afterwards, And I'm sure that they had some words in the locker room,
but at least publicly they're coming out and saying, nah, we're all
good, we love each other. It's just passionate of the game, all
right. So key takeaways, more Vegas Super Bowls. Vegas knows how to
party. And then just don't hit your coach. Don't yeah, don't do
that. I'm Taylor Swift to remember. She was here too, by the
way, every time showing on the big screen, a lot of booze.
Oh she was so much surprising, especially with all the Chiefs fans who were
there, but mainly Niners fans were booing her. But it was one big
boo every time they would show her. Oh that's too bad, leave her
alone. She's just living her life everything and she was enjoying it. Last
night I having a few drinks. Oh that sounds so much fun, Like
it was so much fun. And thank you so much, Alex. I
hope you're able to get some rest today and help that hangover a little bit.
You got it good. Thanks Heady. All right, let's get back
