Chiefs Fan Thanked For Leaving Game Early To Lift Jinx And Spark Comeback

Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes hilariously asked Big Buck Chuck to stay away from the next game.

Twitter user Big Buck Chuck might want to ask the Kansas City Chiefs for a cut of that post-season money.

The Chiefs fan was so convinced that he was jinxing the home team as it fell behind 24-0 to the Houston Texans in the first half of their NFL playoff game Sunday that he left Arrowhead Stadium.

“I’m outta here so we can get this second half comeback going,” he said in a now-viral video posted to Twitter. “It’s our only hope.” 

As it turned out, the Chiefs surged back much sooner, with 28 unanswered points in the second quarter, to take the lead. They eventually won, 51-31, to advance to the AFC Championship Game against the Tennessee Titans.
