“I didn’t really sleep last night, but I didn’t spend it with the trophy,” said Andy. “Well, I did — I spent it with my trophy wife, how’s that?”
He continued: “I listened to Pitbull, that’s what I did. He was unbelievable; he’s got great endurance, I’ll tell ya. Unbelievable endurance, that guy has.”
Their other child, son Garrett, died of a drug overdose in 2012 at age 29, but the family said they felt him at the stadium with them.

Added Tammy: “Just seeing all the hard work he puts in, I’m just so happy for him. I’m happy for the Hunts [owners of the Chiefs] and the players and the coaches and the city of Kansas City, but mostly for him because I see all the hard work he does.”
