Patrick and Brittany Mahomes Receive Rapturous Reception as They Return to Texas Tech

The pair met at Whitehouse High School near Tyler before Patrick went on to study at Texas Tech University

On Monday, Feb. 24, the Kansas City Chiefs quarterback, 29, and his wife Brittany were courtside in Lubbock to watch his former school Texas Tech take on the Houston Cougars at United Supermarkets Arena.

Though he may have left Texas Tech after his junior year to start playing football professionally, the college crowd was delighted to see the alum.

Dressed in Raider Red and black, and sporting shorter hair, Patrick hyped up the crowd, and even celebrated with a fan after he made a golf putt in an on-the-court promotion.

Mom of three Brittany, also 29, opted for red and black too — and looked delighted at the huge cheers the crowd gave her man.

In August, Texas Tech Athletics announced that Patrick and Brittany had pledged a $5 million donation to the South End Zone and Dustin R. Womble Football Center project. To thank the athlete for his generous gift, Texas Tech said a walkthrough area in the soon-to-be-completed Womble Football Center would be named after him
