Buffalo Bills, this spud's for you.

Fans of the NFL's Kansas City Chiefs are fuming ahead of Sunday's AFC divisional playoff game against the Bills – over photos of sweet potatoes posted online.

It's all because Bills fan and season ticket holder Garrett Lee recently went viral with his unique strategy for helping his favorite team win: He has brought a sweet potato to recent games, and each time Buffalo has won.

Lee is hoping his luck continues Sunday against the Chiefs. But because the game will be in Kansas City, he's urging other Bills fans making the trip will keep the lucky streak alive for him.

The phenomenon started Jan. 2, after Lee accidentally brought a sweet potato into a game at Highmark Stadium in Orchard Park, New York, when the Bills hosted the Atlanta Falcons, Syracuse.com reported.

"It’s like the fourth quarter and I go to reach for my phone in my pocket and I pull out the sweet potato," Lee told the outlet. "And I’m like, ‘Huh, I guess I forgot about this.’"

The Bills won that game, 29-15 – and a superstition was born.

The following week, Lee intentionally brought a sweet potato along when the Bills played the New York Jets. Buffalo won that game too, 27-10.

"Then I brought it to the Jets game, and we won that. It’s like, once is a coincidence, twice is a trend," Lee said, according to the report.
