Salt Lake County Mayor Jenny Wilson and West Valley City Mayor Karen Lang “Kickoff” Friendly Football Competition in Atlanta
Two Die-hard Fans Cheer for Rival Teams this Sunday
Salt Lake County, UT-Mayors Jenny Wilson and Karen Lang are embarking on a friendly competition, together, to root for rival teams in Atlanta at the Chiefs vs. Falcons game on September 22.
Once the game is over and the mayors are back in Salt Lake County, the mayor of the losing team agrees to participate in a service project of the other mayor's choice.
"I am a Chiefs fan, all the way," exclaimed Salt Lake County Mayor Jenny Wilson. "When Mayor Lang and I realized we were both die-hard football fans, going to a game together, where both of our favorite teams were playing, just made sense. I love a good sporting rivalry! Go, Chiefs!"
Loyal to the Falcons, Mayor Lang looks forward to them having the home team advantage.
"I am a Falcons fan through and through," West Valley City Mayor Karen Lang declared. "We joke that Atlanta is my second city because, as a season ticket holder, I'm there a lot. This is going to be an exciting game and I look forward to the win."
