After Chiefs Flag Allegedly Buried in Raiders Stadium Other Curses Uncovered
Gerard DeCosta, a construction worker, revealed that he buried a Kansas City Chiefs flag in concrete at the Las Vegas Raiders new home at Allegiant Stadium to forever curse the Raiders. This “offense” was designed to specifically influence the outcome of Superbowl LVIII where the Chiefs will take on the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday. DeCosta, apparently also a clairvoyant construction worker with precognition capabilities, designed this plan during construction of the stadium in order to place bets on the outcome of the game and various in-play bets to which he has already “seen” the outcome. The flag was planted merely to generate social media interest, raise the total pool of money used in betting, and make DeCosta's private island dream a reality. NFL analysts have also taken a deep look into other curses and NFL rivalries. When Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis was under construction, the Houston Texans arranged for a bronze statue of their quarterback, Matt Schaub, to be encased in concrete under the fifty-yard line. The Colts still lead the series, which may be attributed to the Peyton Manning statue outside Lucas Oil Stadium counteracting the Straub one. The “Battle of Ohio” included some underhanded dealings between the head coach of the Cincinnati Bengals, Paul Brown, and his former team the Cleveland Browns. In revenge for getting fired, Coach Brown arranged to the have the orange dye used in creation of Browns uniforms to be cursed by a local shaman at the factory where the dye was created. To prevent similar effects from their own orange dye being cursed, the same shaman conducts a ritual to remove any curses. The Bengals led the series, and the shaman is a very rich man. The Atlanta Falcons and the New Orleans Saints are rivals with a tie in regular season play. This tie might be explained by the falcon that made its home on the roof of the Louisiana Superdome and the bowl of jambalaya, Louisiana Creole cuisine, that was accidentally dropped into a concrete mixer during construction of the Mercedes-Benz Stadium.
