A fashion choice by a Nevada Board of Parole commissioner during a hearing for O.J. Simpson on Thursday led to attention all around the world, particularly in Kansas City.

Adam Endel, who now serves on the board, wore a Kansas City Chiefs necktie for the big event.

The Missouri native is originally from Knob Noster and graduated from Central Missouri State, where he majored in criminal justice.

During an interview with 41 Action News following the hearing, Endel said he wore the tie as a nod to back home.

"It was kind of like a signal to my friends," he explained. "I didn't realize it was going to be picked up that big!"

Endel said he has been a long time Chiefs and Royals fan and has all sorts of team memorabilia and items inside his home and office.

"I watch the Royals every night, and I watch the Chiefs every Sunday," he explained. "Anybody who knows me knows that's what I do."

Endel said he bought the tie during a Chiefs game at Arrowhead Stadium.

He said he chose to wear the tie for the big hearing because he knew many people back in Missouri would be watching.

"Just to let it be known," Endel said. "It was a way of letting some friends know, 'Yeah that's me.'"

The fashion choice ended up leading to plenty of social media posts, some of which are listed below:

Endel said he knew the tie got lots of attention after he left the hearing.

"My Facebook and Twitter alerts were all over the place," he explained. "That's when I knew it was getting bigger and my wife sent me a message."

Moving forward, Endel said he planned to wear the tie again.

"I'll wear it again," he explained. "I'm not going to retire it. I'll use it again."
