Cowboys, Chiefs renewing rivalry at Arrowhead

KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — One of the first things Cowboys owner Jerry Jones did when he awoke Wednesday was to take a good look at the little wooden trophy topped by an odd street sign sitting among the many awards and memorabilia in his Dallas-area home. It’s called the “Preston Road Trophy,” dreamed up by his longtime friend and the late Chiefs owner Lamar Hunt, and named after the street on which they once lived just 300 yards apart.
Ever since the late-1990s, the trophy has been presented to the winning side on the rare occasions that Dallas plays Kansas City. Jones has had the trophy since 2005. Hunt’s son, current Chiefs chairman Clark Hunt, called it “the smallest and ugliest trophy in sports,” and one he wants to win badly on Sunday.
