Employee Kicks Patrick Mahomes Out of a Luxury Watch Store – Minutes Later, He Regrets It Deeply!

Patrick Mahomes quietly entered a high-end watch store, his attire simple—a wrinkled gray shirt, faded jeans, and a well-worn cap. Despite his attempt to go unnoticed, the sharp glances from the store’s staff and customers quickly found him. However, he remained calm. What happened next would leave everyone in the store in shock, especially the employee who had so quickly judged him.
A Palace of Luxury
The store, Arum, stood as a temple of wealth and exclusivity, its name derived from the Latin word for gold. Every detail in the shop exuded opulence—from the pristine glass doors with golden accents to the marble floors that reflected the warm light of meticulously arranged showcases. The watches inside rested on plush velvet cushions, each one seemingly more unattainable than the last.
The staff, dressed in impeccably tailored suits, moved silently, ready to serve—but only those they deemed worthy. It was into this world of extravagance that Patrick Mahomes walked, hands in his pockets, eyes calmly scanning the dazzling array of timepieces. He soon stopped in front of a display case featuring an exquisite, diamond-encrusted watch. The price, though discreet, was clearly enough to separate the dreamers from the true buyers.
Judgment Comes Quickly
A tall, slim employee in an expensive suit noticed him and approached with measured steps. With a single glance at Patrick’s outfit, he arched a brow ever so slightly, suppressing a smirk.
“Can I help you?” the employee asked, his tone neutral but tinged with condescension.
Patrick nodded, pointing at the watch that had caught his attention. “I’d like to know more about this watch.”
The employee blinked, as if uncertain he had heard correctly. “This one?” he asked, leaning in slightly to confirm. “That watch costs more than most people earn in years.”
“I know. I just want more details,” Patrick responded, unfazed.
The employee folded his arms, allowing a faint smile to surface. “Well, I’m not sure it’s the kind of piece you’d be looking for,” he said, pausing deliberately. “Perhaps I can show you something more… accessible.”
The disdain was unmistakable, but Patrick did not react. He simply looked at the watch, maintaining his calm demeanor. The employee sighed, as though dealing with a stubborn child, before finally giving in.
“This model,” he explained, “is a limited edition, crafted from 18-karat white gold with diamond inlays. It features a fully automatic Swiss mechanism—one of the finest ever made. Only five of these exist in the world. It’s an investment, a collector’s item.”
Patrick remained silent for a moment, then said, “Can you show me how it works?”
The employee chuckled, shaking his head. “Sir, this isn’t the kind of watch you just ‘try on.’ It’s meant for serious buyers.” He lowered his voice and added, “You do realize it costs $300,000, right?”
A Moment of Reflection
Patrick held the employee’s gaze, his expression unchanged. “The price isn’t relevant right now. I just want to see the watch.”
The employee scoffed, now fully embracing his sarcasm. “Well, just in case, let me repeat—three hundred thousand dollars.” He emphasized each word as if explaining to a child.
Patrick nodded. “Now, can you show me the watch, or will you keep explaining things I didn’t ask about?”
The employee crossed his arms with a mocking smile. “You know what? I think you’re in the wrong place. Arum isn’t a store for the curious. Here, we deal with serious buyers.” He gestured at Patrick’s clothing. “People who actually belong.”
Patrick took a deep breath. “So, according to you, a serious buyer is someone who looks the part?”
The employee shrugged. “It’s not just appearance, sir. It’s reality.” He smiled, relishing the moment. “Let’s be honest—you don’t look like you’re here to buy anything.”
Patrick observed him quietly before finally responding. “It seems you judge a person’s worth by their appearance. That’s sad.”
The employee’s smirk faltered briefly, but he quickly regained his composure. “What’s sad is wasting time with someone who isn’t actually going to buy anything.”
Patrick took a step back and nodded. “Got it. I’m not welcome here. Thanks for your service.”
The employee, clearly satisfied, replied, “My pleasure. Come back anytime—maybe next time, you’ll find something in your budget.”
Patrick turned toward the door and walked away. But just as he reached the exit, a voice broke the silence.
A Stunning Revelation
“Wait… is that—? No, it can’t be. That’s Patrick Mahomes!” a customer whispered in shock.
The employee stiffened. The name spread through the store like wildfire. Customers turned, whispering excitedly, and the manager rushed over, his face pale.
The employee, now visibly panicked, stammered, “H-He’s really Patrick Mahomes?”
The manager sighed. “Of course he is. And you just treated him like that.”
Realization hit the employee like a wave of ice water. He rushed toward the exit, calling out desperately. “Mr. Mahomes, please wait!”
Patrick stopped and turned slowly. “Now you’re calling me ‘sir’?”
The employee swallowed hard. “I—I’m so sorry. I didn’t recognize you. My behavior was unacceptable.”
Patrick raised an eyebrow. “So you need to know someone’s name to treat them with respect?”
The employee turned red. “No, of course not. I—I was just… I was wrong. I’m truly sorry.”
Patrick gave a faint smile, more disappointed than amused. “This isn’t about me. It’s about you. Your attitude says more about who you are than any watch you could ever sell.”
The manager stepped in hastily. “Mr. Mahomes, I deeply apologize for what happened. Please, allow us to make it up to you.”
Patrick simply shook his head. “I don’t need anything from you. I just wanted to see a watch, and you decided I wasn’t worthy.” He turned back to the employee. “Maybe this is a lesson for you—treat people with respect, not based on how they look, but because it’s the right thing to do.”
And with that, Patrick left, leaving behind a stunned silence.
A Lesson Learned
The store’s atmosphere remained heavy long after he was gone. The manager called the employee into his office, his tone firm. “This isn’t just about losing a sale—it’s about who we are. You made a mistake that could cost us dearly.”
The employee nodded, shame written all over his face. “I understand.”
A few days later, Patrick Mahomes was seen purchasing a vintage pocket watch from a small, unassuming shop. When asked about his choice, he simply said, “The value of a watch isn’t in its price, but in its meaning. And the same goes for people.”
Back at Arum, the manager read aloud a note Patrick had left behind: “Respect is the true luxury.”
The employee, humbled, listened intently. He had learned a lesson that day—one that would stay with him for life.

What is it with these serial winners? They have a knack for winning, and the thing they are good at, they are a machine in it. Take Patrick Mahomes for example. When he needs to prove it, he becomes like a one-man savior for the Chiefs – 7 game-winning drives and responsible for five 4th-quarter comebacks in the 2024-25 season. He can just feel when the win is up for grabs.ư
And an apex predator like him doesn’t give charity wins, even for his close ones. In response to his Instagram post on Feb 2 where he tells about his ping-pong talents, Mahomes’s wife, Brittany, commented, “But good thing I can beat you at ping-pong🙂.” To which the defending back-to-back Super Bowl MVP replied, “No chance🤣”. Come on, Mahomes—no need to be blunt about it. But people like him have a saying – Not arrogant, just better.
Do Mr. and Mrs. Mahomes have ping-pong spurring sessions at home? Seems like they need to settle this with a Patrick vs Brittany game. The winner gets bragging rights on Instagram. Weirdly enough, we can’t bet against Patrick, can we? We have seen him on the gridiron. Brittany better have some skills we don’t know about.
We believe that a chiseled torso and a low body fat percentage directly relate to an athlete’s success. Prime example – Cristiano Ronaldo and Novak Djokovic. They are like our go-to examples when we think of the best athletes. But Mahomes’s trainer, Bobby Stroupe, says that thought process is flawed. For him, dad-bod features are what make Mahomes such a good QB.
While working with major league pitchers, Stroupe saw athletes with more body fat and mass were better throwers of the ball. What is a QB required to do? Throw to his wide receivers and tight ends. And we don’t have to tell you what a bullet throw Patrick Mahomes has.

A pitching instructor, Ben Brewster, who sees a similarity between pitchers and quarterbacks as far as throwing is concerned, also sees how the dad bod physique enhances throwing velocity: “If they feel better being 20 percent body fat, there’s no reason they have to be 10 percent body fat.” Definitely, it depends on how they feel about themselves.
Apart from this, according to Stroupe, Mahomes also has a special ability to read momentum and space, which helps him judge the speed and movement of himself and his opponents.
Take all this together, he is just built to be a champion quarterback. And yes, give the credit to the ‘dad bod’. That’s taken him to the footsteps of a never-before-done 3-peat.
