The Kansas City Chiefs unveiled their championship rings for Super Bowl LVIII on Thursday. The rings, which have 529 diamonds, 38 rubies and a host of small details on every surface of the ring, represent the Chiefs' fourth Super Bowl victory. But there's a catch: For all of its tiny details, the Chiefs made one small typo in the meticulously crafted ring. The Kansas City Chiefs defeated the San Francisco 49ers 25-22 in overtime in February, with the score and final play honored in details on the ring. The typo can be found on the inside of the ring, which includes the scores of the four games Kansas City won throughout its playoff run as well as the teams it played and their seeds. The team seeding is likely to show off the impressive end of the run, where the Chiefs defeated both No. 1 seeds (Baltimore and San Francisco) to win another championship. As noted by Arrowhead Report's Joshua Brisco and confirmed by NBC's Mike Florio, a photo of the inside of the ring posted by Kansas City lists the Chiefs' first game as a 26-7 win over the seven-seed Miami Dolphins — but the Dolphins were a sixth seed, defeated by the third-seed Chiefs in the first round of the playoffs. The Pittsburgh Steelers were the seventh seed and lost to the second-seed Buffalo Bills. Florio and Pro Football Talk confirmed Friday that the typo was present on at least one of the physical rings, indicating that it isn't just a mistake on the graphic. As a result, Florio posits that it's probably present on all of them. Even with the typo, players seemed pleased with the new rings, and the successful season they represent. Now, it's time for Kansas City to look ahead: With the Chiefs' mandatory minicamp completed on Thursday, the team will return to training camp in July to start working toward next season.

Daniel Weinman won the World Series of Poker's main event world championship on Monday in Las Vegas, earning $12.1 million along the way. Playing in the tournament for a 16th year, Weinman was tops in a deep pool of 10,043 players vying for $93.39 million. His victory came after just 164 hands at the final table. "I was honestly on the fence about even coming back and playing this tournament," the 35-year-old Atlanta native told reporters afterward. Weinman's final table featured Jan-Peter Jachtmann, who landed in fourth place and took home $3 million, as well as Toby Lewis, who finished seventh and secured $1.42 million. According to the Las Vegas Review-Journal, the main event's entry pool far outpaced the previous record of 8,773 set in 2006. "I've always kind of felt that poker was kind of going in a dying direction, but to see the numbers at the World Series this year has been incredible," Weinman said. "And to win this main event, it doesn't feel real. I mean, [there's] so much luck in a poker tournament. I thought I played very well." Steven Jones finished second, securing $6.5 million. And Adam Walton settled for third and a $4 million prize.
