Chiefs center Creed Humphrey just found himself in one of the craziest environments this offseason

We all see all of the sporting events and entertainment events that Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelce go to in the offseason. That's normal for the Kansas City Chiefs' pair of superstars.
For instance, just this week, we saw Mahomes at the Women's College World Series for softball in Oklahoma City, where his alma mater, Texas Tech, was playing in the National Championship. Unfortunately for him, they lost to Texas, but it was good to see him and his family out and about. Last offseason, it was the Dallas Mavericks, where he watched his hometown team go to the NBA Finals.
Well, now it's Creed Humphrey's turn. And, mind you, Humphrey isn't a guy you will see out in public a ton during the offseason, especially not like Mahomes and Kelce. But, on Sunday, he found himself in one of the craziest environments, one that kind of resembles when he plays at home on Sundays.
Creed Humphrey watches his hometown team in person
Now, Humphrey isn't one to be courtside like Mahomes, so many Chiefs fans probably didn't notice him, but the former Oklahoma Sooners center went back to his hometown to watch the Oklahoma City Thunder in the NBA Finals, as they tied the series up 1-1 against the Indiana Pacers.
Humphrey was up in the stands a bit, not too high up there, but high enough where the cameras can't just put him on TV as easily as they can when other celebrities are at their games. And, you better believe that he was wearing his Thunder gear.
The Thunder have somehow replicated energy and culture during their games that is very reminiscent of a college atmosphere. And, think about it, they have OU just down the street, and the Thunder is the only professional team in town outside of the new softball league. And, they are considered to have the best home-court advantage in the entire NBA, with the best and loudest fans.
And honestly, it's not even close. For game two of the NBA Finals, a game that the Thunder had to win after losing game one on a buzzer-beater, it was insanely loud in that building. Humphrey got to watch the Thunder go up by as much as 23 points, with Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, the MVP of the league, scoring 34 points.
I'm sure Humphrey is happy with the result, too.
