'ChiefsAholic' Trailer Unveiled by Prime Video Ahead of Dec. 24 Premiere Date

Amazon's Prime Video released the trailer for its true-crime documentary about Kansas City Chiefs superfan and serial bank robber Xaviar Babudar, better known as ChiefsAholic:

Amazon announced that ChiefsAholic: A Wolf in Chief's Clothing will premiere on Dec. 24. The documentary "features unprecedented interview footage with Babudar following his initial arrest, prior to him removing his ankle monitor and going on the run" and also "explores critical moments in the events surrounding Babudar's initial arrest, and offers a firsthand perspective on his subsequent journey."

In September, Babudar was sentenced to 17 and a half years in prison with no parole followed by three years of supervised release after he admitted to committing 11 bank robberies across seven states over a period of 16 months beginning in March 2022, stealing over $800,000 and laundering the money through casinos. He pleaded guilty to one count of bank robbery, one count of money laundering and one count of transporting stolen property across state lines.

Babudar became a staple at Arrowhead Stadium during Kansas City's recent rise to supremacy in the NFL. His full-body gray wolf suit made him a standout among the other superfans in Chiefs Kingdom.

At the time of his sentencing, Babudar's attorney Matthew Merryman said his client's robberies were driven by a gambling addiction, but senior litigation counsel at the U.S. Attorney's Office Patrick Daly offered a different explanation.

"It's not an addiction to gambling. It's not an addiction to the Chiefs," Daly said. "It's an addiction to fame."

In addition to his prison sentence, Babudar was also ordered by a judge in April to pay $10.8 million in damages to a Bixby, Oklahoma, bank teller he threatened with a gun during his robbery spree.

ChiefsAholic: A Wolf in Chief's Clothing surely will uncover some of the mysteries surrounding Babudar's rise to fame and subsequent fall.
