Football fans took internet sleuthing to another level over the weekend when Chiefs super fan Xaviar Babudar went silent on social media.

Babudar, who goes by “@ChiefsAHolic” on Twitter and Instagram, had some Chiefs supporters concerned Sunday when he did not show up to NRG Stadium, where Kansas City defeated the Texans in overtime, 30-24.

Babudar, who usually attends Chiefs games dressed in his infamous wolf costume, was arrested and booked for armed robbery in Tulsa, Oklahoma on Friday, according to court records — that state the suspect was wearing a mask during the incident.

Babudar’s bond was set at $200,000.

On Tuesday, Tulsa’s News On 6 reported that Bixby Police said Babudar is accused of robbing a Tulsa Teachers Credit Union. Officers arrested Babudar while attempting to escape with a weapon and a large amount of cash after an eyewitness inside the bank called police. Bank employees and witnesses were not hurt in the incident. 

Chiefs fans on Twitter believe Babudar was on his way to the game in Houston when the incident occurred. Babudar has yet to address the matter.

As of Tuesday morning, Babudar’s social media accounts were silent. He has not posted on Twitter since Friday, when he reposted a tweet by Steve Harvey that read: “When they sleep on you… TUCK THEM IN.”

Babudar is a die hard Chiefs fan who usually attends games in a full-body wolf costume and team gear. He’s garnered a following on social media, and has become somewhat of a local celebrity at Arrowhead Stadium.

Earlier this month, Babudar attended a charity event for Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes. He was also present at Empower Field at Mile High in Denver, where the Chiefs defeated the Broncos, 34-28, on Dec. 11.

Last month, Babudar tweeted about betting on Chiefs games, writing, “I make a good living, plus I hustle in private. House money I’m playing with TBH.”
