According to Hallmark’s press release, the synopsis for the movie reads:
Alana Higman (King) is sure that her family’s lifelong history as Kansas City Chiefs superfans makes them a frontrunner to win the team’s ‘Fan of the Year’ contest. Derrick (Hynes), Director of Fan Engagement, is tasked with evaluating how Alana and her family stack up against the other two finalists. As the pair spends time together, it’s clear there’s a spark between them but when her grandfather’s (Begley Jr.) vintage Chiefs, good luck winter hat goes missing, Alana begins to doubt everything she believed about fate, destiny and even questions her future with Derrick – unless, that is, a little Christmas magic can throw a Hail Mary.”

All season long, GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium will also host a Hallmark branded tailgate activation zone, where fans will enjoy photo opportunities, free hot cocoa and other surprises.
Hallmark also shared that a Chiefs x Hallmark themed pennant will be given away during the November 29 home game, the day before the movie premieres.
