He's the one Beatle I ever saw live in concert, just a few years back - nosebleed seats since the venue was packed with fans, even now, and he not only did a whole variety of songs, both Beatles and his, and did numerous encores.

but Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs are the Best Ever. Two Superbowl back to back. Breaking every possible record in record time. Example: yesterday Travis Kelce passed Jerry Rice for most post-season catches. Jerry Rice needed 29 games, Kelce did it in 21.

Others come and go, but the Beatles are forever. I was fortunate to actually see Paul McCartney live in concert a few years back, they actually had a big screen set up on the stage so everyone could see him in the nosebleed seats and he played and sang everything, including numerous encores. I actually saw and heard a Beatle - and I always did love his music. And I did see the Beatles famous appearance on Ed Sullivan - I was just a kid, had no interest, but my mother called me and made me watch, she said that "this is history."
