Some players celebrate winning the Super Bowl by going to Disney World. Kansas City Chiefs defensive lineman Derrick Nnadi had something else in mind.

After the Chiefs beat the San Francisco 49ers in Super Bowl LIV Sunday, Nnadi paid for the adoption fees for every dog KC Pet Project, at an animal shelter in Kansas City. Now, every dog that is available for adoption at the shelter can go home with a family for free.

According the KC Pet Project website, the shelter cares for “over 10,000 animals a year and work collaboratively with Animal Control and other animal welfare organizations to increase the number of homeless pets adopted.”

“The perfect way to cap off this great season!” Nnadi posted on Twitter, along with the message from KC Pet Project.
