Kansas City Chiefs ‘Retire’ Warpaint Mascot, Team Vows To Keep Creating ‘Opportunities To Educate’

This week, the Kansas City Chiefs announced that the NFL franchise would no longer showcase a horse mascot named “Warpaint” galloping around the field on game days.

“We feel like it’s time to retire Warpaint,” said Chiefs president Mark Donovan at training camp on Monday. “A lot of reasons for that, but we feel like it’s the right thing to do. Warpaint won’t be running at Arrowhead (Stadium) anymore.”
