For Pete's Sake

Kansas City Chiefs fans made Raiders’ stadium sound like Arrowhead on Sunday night

The Raiders played the 2020 season, their first at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas, without fans in the stands because of the COVID-19 pandemic.

But on Sunday night, the fans were on hand to see the Chiefs thump the Raiders 41-14. And, well, at least one Raiders fan was seeing red about all the red.

Yep, the fan was seeing Chiefs red, because it was all around. That turned Allegiant Stadium into Arrowhead West for a night.

Fans watching on TV noticed Tyreek Hill was warmly greeted by Chiefs fans after scoring his second touchdown.

In the second half, the Chiefs chant normally reserved for home games could be heard at Allegiant Stadium.

That’s not the only KC touch at the game. The end of the playing of the national anthem in Las Vegas should be familiar to Chiefs fans.

Chiefs fans also noticed that a Raiders fan in a Derek Carr jersey was looking for a high-five from Kansas City players after the game.

Did the Chiefs convert the fan? Or maybe she was simply a Travis Kelce fan. Either way, it was a good night for the Chiefs and their fans.
