The meal of champions?In-N-Out burgers, of course.
Afterclinching a 25-22 overtime win over the San Francisco 49ersin the2024 Super Bowlon Sunday, theKansas City Chiefshead coachAndy Reidwent home with not only a championship, but also a meal fit for a champion.
Like actorPaul Giamatti— whowent viral earlier this year for celebrating his 2024 Golden Globe win at In-N-Out Burger— Reid, 65, also walked away from his sweet victory with burgers from the West Coast chain restaurant.
During his post-game interview with Chris Berman, Booger McFarland and Andy’s wifeTammy Reid, Berman surprised the coach — avocal burger enthusiast— with a very special gift: a box of In-N-Out (with all of the fixins').
“You don’t have to eat it on set, it’s up to you,” Berman told the coach, adding, “You can take it with you but you don’t leave ESPN set empty-handed.”
After grabbing Berman’s hand, Andy joked: “What’s sad is I can smell the onions.”
“That’s a bad sign,” he added with a laugh, and the commentator quipped back: “That’s why you’re omnipresent as coach… go enjoy a snack.”

The grill-out staple was a particularly fitting celebratory meal for the coach who, elsewhere in the ESPN interview, revealed that the game-winning play was a spin on the team’s “corn dog” play — whichled them to victory in last year’s Super Bowl.
“We had corn dog last year and that was … corn dog with a little mustard and ketchup,” Andy revealed.
