In this story:

The Kansas City Chiefs are heading back to the Super Bowl. And they are letting everyone know about it.

Shortly after the final seconds ticked off the clock in Kansas City’s 17–10 win over the Baltimore Ravens, the Chiefs’ social media team posted a graphic with a spicy caption.

“When you come for the Kingdom, YOU BEST NOT MISS,” it read.

The caption, of course, is reference to a classic scene from the television show The Wire. 

In the eighth episode of the show’s debut season, the character Omar Little utters the phrase, “Come at the king, you best not miss.”

The Chiefs are indisputably the kings of the AFC, as they will venture to their fourth Super Bowl in the past five seasons.
