The Chiefs banner flies at Arrowhead

The "Fire Pioli - Bench Cassel" banner is in the air

Confirmed: the banner flew over Arrowhead Stadium before the KC Chiefs and Baltimore Ravens game.

Chiefs fans over at the message board Chiefs Planet raised money to fly the following banner before the Chiefs and Ravens game:

WE DESERVE BETTER! FIRE PIOLI - BENCH CASSEL

Wow. I didn't think it would come to this but I looked up and there it was. The banner was on my left as I was sitting in the Arrowhead press box and I saw it go behind the stadium.

Others saw the banner as well.
