The Chiefs are also headed to the Super Bowl for the fourth time in five seasons.

HOW MUCH ARE FLIGHTS FROM DALLAS TO LAS VEGAS?

At the time of this publication, flights out of Dallas to Las Vegas' Harry Reid International Airport started at $335 for a round-trip flight for the weekend. Prices have been going up daily, so book now!

The Chiefs have the chance to be back-to-back champions this year. They defeated the Philadelphia Eagles, 38-35, in Super Bowl LVII last year.

WHO IS PERFORMING AT THE SUPER BOWL?

Usher will perform at the halftime show this year. In addition to Usher's big performance, Reba McEntire will sing the national anthem, North Texas native Post Malone will perform "America the Beautiful" and Andra Day will perform "Lift Every Voice and Sing."

Super Bowl LVIII will be played thousands of miles away just hours after her last show. With Tokyo 17 hours ahead of Las Vegas, she should technically be able to make it on time to watch her beau Travis Kelce and the Chiefs on Feb. 11.
