Several sports writers accused a nine-year-old Kansas City Chiefs fan of wearing “black face” at a game, but one writer admitted to judging too early and apologized for not waiting for the facts.
The boy was seen wearing a Travis Kelce jersey, a feathered Indian headdress, and face paint in team colors.
The other side of his face was red, and it was revealed that he has Native American heritage. (Trending: Bombshell Email Uncovered Between Joe Biden And Hunter)

The media was criticized for attacking the boy, and his mother defended him, stating that he was not in “black face” and has Native heritage.
The boy’s grandfather is an official in the Chumash Tribe.
Jack McGuire apologized for his initial incorrect take on the story.
“I am an idiot,” McGuire admitted.
“On Sunday, I took this photo”, started McGuire.
“Aand said that he was wearing blackface and a headdress,” he continued.
Why is @Deadspin @carronJphillips trying to ruin this little kid’s life? They’re accusing him of blackface but conveniently left out his full face which was painted for the game https://t.co/kFfgAL4aDH pic.twitter.com/750u5sfETE

“What I did not do is let more things come out about that photo,” he added.
Mcguire admitted that “the other side of his face was red” and “as for the headdress, it has come out that he is Native American.”
“His grandfather is part of the Chumash tribe … I have since taken down this TikTok,” McGuire confessed to have learning since the incident.
“And the apology should be as loud as the accusation,” said the journalist.
“So here is my TikTok saying I am sorry and also I am an idiot,” he concluded.
