Patrick Mahomes and his pregnant wife Brittany celebrated Halloween by dressing up as zoo characters with their two children, and then hitting the streets of their Kansas City suburb in Missouri for some trick-or-treating.
The Kansas City Chiefs star quarterback played the role of zoo keeper dressed in a tan uniform with ‘zookeeper’ written above one shirt pocket and his name “Patrick’ above on the other.
He also wore a matching bucket hat and combat-style boots while alongside his wife, who wore a kangaroo onesie costume, that came complete with a head for a hat, a little kangaroo pouch for a baby kangaroo and light brown boots.
As the zoo keeper, the three-time Super Bowl MVP and champion had to contend with three-year-old daughter Sterling being a pink flamingo and son Bronze, who turns two in November, as a ferocious lion.
The proud parents documented the holiday by sharing a series of snaps and videos on their respective Instagram pages, with the both of them sharing a family photo with the caption: ‘Happy Halloween.’
Patrick Mahomes and wife Brittany, both 29, celebrated Halloween by dressing up as a zoo keeper and kangaroo, respectively, and going trick-or-treating with three-year-old daughter Sterling, as a pink flamingo, and nearly two-year-old son Bronze, who went as a lion
The Mahomes, who are high school sweethearts, announced they are expecting their third child in an Instagram post in late July
Along with a family photo they both shared, taken on the front stoop of their home, the NFL superstar would also share an adorable photo of himself cradling Bronze in his arms while they were both in full costume.
Brittany also posted pre-costume pictures of her kids strapped into their customized seats in the family SUV.
From there, she shared a clip of the family of four riding on a golf cart through their neighborhood with Ray Parker Jr’s Halloween-appropriate song Ghostbusters (1984) playing on the sound system.
She followed up with a cute photo of her and Bronze in their outfits out front of their mansion, and a video of Bronze walking up their long driveway in his lion costume.
‘Say trick-or-treat,’ the mother of two can be heard telling her son as he makes his way back towards the house. A little out of breath. and at barely two he’s still adding many new words to his vocabulary, he did his best to reiterate ‘trick-or-treat.’
There’s also a solo photo of Sterling flashing a big beaming smile as a pink flamingo, and another of her brother enjoying the fruits of his labor by sucking on a lollipop.
Eventually, the zoo keeper and his animals arrived at the doorstep of a neighbor where the patriarch of the family tried to educate them on what to do and to ask for what they want.
After both of their kids got a treat they all thanked the homeowner and then seemingly were on their way to the next house for more trick-or-treating.
The Mahomes live in a customized 4,300-square-foot, $1.8 million mansion that sits on a 1.4 acre property, which is just a 20-minute drive to the Chiefs’ Arrowhead Stadium in Missouri, according to Architecturaldigest.com.
The couple are actually high school sweethearts who began dating in March 2012 when Patrick was a sophomore and Brittany a junior while attending Whitehouse High School in East Texas.
They dated for about eight years before the Chiefs leader proposed at their Super Bowl ring ceremony in Kansas City in 2020, ultimately leading to their wedding in March 2022.
They came out and publicly announced they were expecting their third child in an Instagram post on July 12.

The tradition of trick-or-treating has its origins in a variety of European and Celtic customs, which included Souling, a medieval English tradition where people would go door-to-door on All Saint’s Day to offer a song or prayer in exchange for food, typically a soul cake.
The Scottish and Irish tradition of guising is when people would go door-to-door in costume and perform a short act to receive food or treats.
The Celtic pagan holiday called Samhain comes from when people would dress up and have bonfires to scare away gods who might try to trick them.
Irish, Scottish, and English immigrants brought these traditions to the United States, but trick-or-treating didn’t become popular until the 1950s.
