Time and time again, the NFL world has witnessed the craziest fans. From running on the ground to spewing slurs at the players, it has become pretty normal for a grand league like the NFL. But no one even comes close to the lengths Xaviar Babudar went for his favorite team. Babudar has been widely known as one of the biggest fans of the Chiefs before everyone found out what he actually did for a living. He has been labeled as Chiefs’ Superfan, as he had never missed a game of his favorite team, and even witnessed the team’s Super Bowl victory sitting courtside.

Babudar even went by the name ‘Chiefsaholic‘ and gathered a massive following on social media. He was seen numerous times in the VIP section of a Chiefs’ game before landing himself on the Most Wanted list.

There were always speculations about how this young fan could afford to attend every game and buy VIP tickets worth thousands of dollars, which even led him to get a selfie with the Chiefs‘ general manager. He even once went to his beloved team’s match in a wolf costume. Everything became crystal clear when he was arrested in Oklahoma, accused of bank robbery last December, two days before the Chiefs’ game against the Houston Texans.

The Chiefsaholic was also charged in December with one count of arm robbery and assault. Since then he has been living under house arrest after being released on Bond. He was supposed to appear before the court as his case was still pending. But before his appearance date, he cut off his ankle monitor and fled from his home. The ankle monitor was later recovered in a jungle area.

How much trouble is he in?

After this stunt, a warrant has been issued for the superfan’s arrest worth a whopping 1 million dollars. Also, he has been listed 5th on Kansas City Crime Stoppers ‘Most Wanted’ list. He faces an additional count of charges for removing his ankle monitor. It has been also reported on the Pat McAfee podcast that some well-known bounty hunters have been deployed to track him down.

The 28-year-old superfan had a massive following on Twitter before his felony charges appeared on the news. He posted about his placed bets and luxurious seats worth $10000 to his 50000 followers. Jason Kelce even once jokingly invited him to his podcast. He later claimed that he managed warehouses and other sorts of businesses to afford such luxuries. Babudar then deleted his Twitter account after his arrest last year.
