KANSAS CITY —The iconic Western Auto sign in Kansas City is shining bright again after a quick fix this week. The T in the sign was out and sportscaster Al Michaels referred to it while on the air during the Chiefs Thursday night game Oct. 12.

On social media, Mayor Quinton Lucas joked, "Kansas City will take the power source from the ferris wheel and apply it to the T in the Wes ern Auto sign."

On Tuesday night Lucas thanked Midwest Sign Company for their efforts and "of course, legendary sportscaster Al Michaels."
