The film was filmed in historic Independence Square, Missouri, which really does look like it all year round
Line of Events
Die-hard Kansas City Chiefs fan Alana Higman and her family are competing to win the team’s Fan of the Year award in a process that was reviewed by Derrick, the director of fan engagement, from the comfort of their own homes.
The square also has Christmas lights, just like in the movie
The locations that served as the Higman family store and Norman and Nick’s Grille are also family stores in real life.
I thought this movie was cute
It’s sports-themed and I loved the little Easter eggs (Donna Kelce, Andy Reid, and older retired players) that appeared in the movie.
It’s definitely a signature movie where the overbearing family is always trying to get in
This movie was a nice departure from the usual “strong female leader comes to a small town to fix something and falls in love with a small town guy.” Overall though, it was a typical trademark and still a sweet Christmas themed movie, even though it wasn’t as big a theme as football.
