It’s a time-honored Super Bowl tradition for the MVP of the big game to say the phrase “I'm going to Disneyland!” after winning. This year, Patrick Mahomes was no exception. He and his family celebrated the victory at Disneyland on Monday.
Patrick and wife Brittany took a picture in front of Sleeping Beauty Castle with their two children as a souvenir and posted it on their Instagram accounts. It was the first time fans have seen the face of their son, Patrick “Bronze” Lavon Mahomes III, as he is just 2 months old. He is adorable, to say the least.
Brittany and Patrick captioned their photo, "Welcome to the happiest place on earth, Bronze and Sterling!" Sterling is a big sister at nearly 2 years old. Brittany and Patrick, who are high school sweethearts, want their children to have a close relationship, so they chose to connect them with their names.
“When me and Brittany had Sterling, we didn’t know if it was a girl or boy at first so we started thinking of girl and boys’ names. We wanted them to have that connection and them to be brother and sister forever,” Patrick explained.
It was Patrick's brother Jackson who came up with the nickname.
“He said, ‘What about Bronze? It fits perfectly with Sterling,’ so we went with that. It works out well. He can have his own thing now, where he’s not Patrick, he’s Bronze, even though he’s Patrick. Then, Sterling and Bronze can have that connection moving forward,” Patrick stated.
