Chiefs Fan Known as Chiefsaholic Ordered to Pay $10.8M in Damages After Bank Robbery

A Kansas City Chiefs superfan who committed a series of bank robberies has been ordered by a judge to pay $10.8 million in damages to a Bixby, Oklahoma, bank teller he threatened with a gun in 2022, per ESPN's Elizabeth Merrill and David Purdum.

Xaviar Babudar, widely known as Chiefsaholic, reportedly was ordered to pay Payton Garcia, the former teller, $3.6 million for inflicting physical harm and emotional distress and $7.2 million in punitive damages. Tulsa County District Judge Tracy L. Priddy made the ruling last Wednesday.

Babudar reached a federal plea agreement in February after admitting to committing 11 robberies in seven states that resulted in more than $800,000 and laundering that money through casinos.
