ESPN Announces Deep Dive Into Infamous Chiefs Fan
 
Found this to share:

GET YOUR POPCORN READY, KANSAS CITY!
There's supposedly an important football game being played on Monday but plans change. ESPN+ is releasing a documentary on Chiefs' infamous superfan Xaviar Babudar, more commonly known as "ChiefsAholic," and it looks spectacular.
This is the most exciting day for Chiefs Kingdom in years.

Where do you begin?
The 40-minute documentary, titled "Where Wolf: The Search for ChiefsAholic", appears to interview several people close to Babudar and his attorney, who made waves for his impassioned defense of his client over the summer.
Bravo to ESPN's production team for getting this film put out so quickly. You can hear the voices of prominent Chiefs fans and there's reference of a second fan that wears a wolf costume as well, adding to the intrigue.
This looks like a special week for Chiefs fans and I expect all of Kansas City to tune into ESPN+ on Monday.
A watch party for ChiefsAholic followed by a watch party for Chiefs vs. Eagles sounds like the best possible way to spend NFL Week 11.

Really scraping the bottom of the barrel for stories, huh?

Chiefs316 11-16-2023 10:36 AM

I can't wait for the movie. Hopefully Martin Scorsese picks it up!

TwistedChief 11-16-2023 10:37 AM

Meh. Would prefer the X-Factor biopic.

They can make it a series on Chief's superfans. He can be next.

Guessing ESPN isn't the only one doing a deep dive into him

RedinTexas 11-16-2023 10:47 AM

I hear Son of Sam was a NY Giants fan. I wonder if espn will do a deep dive into that.

FlaChief58 11-16-2023 10:52 AM

This is the kind of hard hitting programming that makes me glad I dont watch espn anymore

"The most exciting day for Chiefs Kingdom in years!"

Lmao, maybe you could say this if this was the Pioli ran Chiefs, but it's not. We play in the most exciting games every single year and this isn't remotely close to exciting.

Zebedee DuBois 11-16-2023 11:03 AM

Is there a slippery slope of fandom/obsession?

1.) I find football entertaining
2.) It's entertaining and I really enjoy a particular team
3.) I like this team and I have a tee shirt that says so.
4.) Now I wear multiple team related articles of clothing
5.) I got tickets to the game and I'll be wearing my gear.
6.) I paint my face with the team colors now.
7.) Face paint plus a costume. People expect it. I haven't asked them or heard anyone say they expect it, but I'm sure they do.
8.) I've added some actions or antics to my routine. If I see a camera operator, I flail about until he films me. Everyone loves me - they don't have to verbalise it - I can tell from their eyes that I am adored and valued.
9.) My fandom, my presence, my actions are an integral part of the teams success. If I failed to be at the game, doing the things I do, the crowd would become listless and the team would surely fail. I am integral to their success.
10.) Think I'll rob a bank.

Right!

This is not the most exciting day for Chiefs Kingdom in years. I mean, we've played in 5 straight AFC Championship games, 3 SBs, etc. over the past several years. I'd say those were the most exciting. What a bunch of crap.

If I didn't pay the subscription to see FIBA basketball on + this summer, then I sure ain't gonna do it for this tripe.

Spott 11-16-2023 11:22 AM

It’s funny that the words infamous fan only narrows it down to a few people.

Our man seems to be doing pretty well these days. Hopefully that keeps up.

I made it to 6 and wizened up. If I got to 7 I think I would hurt myself.

I sure as heck wouldn't pay for it but there are a few KU basketball games on there every year now. And 1 or 2 of the early season football games, as well.

Unfortunately, I’ll be missing that. It conflicts with the big dodgeball tournament on “The Ocho.” Must see tv! I’ll be staying up late for that one!

RealSNR 11-16-2023 02:55 PM

I'd rather watch the documentary "Should We Have?" The Search for DeBerg_1990

11) Find the strongest dude in prison and offer to suck his dick on the regular for protection.

Honest and provocative. :)

Helps for CP too.

The Westboro Church picketing with [FURRIES ARE GAY] signs would be the highlight

Lol. Did they do that?

BigRedChief 11-16-2023 09:42 PM

I hate this. It reflects so poorly on us fans. Rightly or wrongly. He had a big following of Chief fans. Doesn’t matter they didn’t know of his criminal activity.

I’m gonna venture a guess that every fan base has a few bad apples and nobody will think this means Chiefs fans are bank robbers

Hard pass.
