On Thursday night, the Kansas City Chiefs played the Baltimore Ravens in the first game of the 2024 regular season. Of course, there were many pre-game festivities at Arrowhead Stadium, as it was the Chiefs’ first game since winning the Super Bowl. The most popular sight was the Chiefs flyover.

They flew a B-2 Stealth Bomber over the stadium just before kickoff, and the players’ reactions were amazing. The specific video features Chris Jones and George Karlaftis watching it as it passed.

The B-2 Stealth Bomber was likely the last plane anyone thought would appear for the flyover. That specific aircraft cost $2 billion, has a 172-foot wingspan, can carry 16 nuclear bombs, and only 21 have ever been built.

Flyovers have become a normal sight at NFL games if weather permits, but not many are as grand as this. Of course, though, why not pull out all the theatrics for a team on a generational run like the Chiefs?

Kansas City Chiefs Pull Off Close Week 1 Victory After Epic Flyover

The Chiefs and Ravens have already put together an amazing game in just the first matchup of the NFL season. In a tight game, the Chiefs squeaked by with a 27-20 win, starting them undefeated this season.

However, the Ravens were a toe away from tying the game up after an insane catch from tight end Isaiah Likely in the back of the endzone.

After review, though, it was determined that he was out of bounds but just a toe length. Since it was the last play of regulation, the game concluded there, and just like that, the game was over.
