LAS VEGAS —

It's an urban legend that's been floating around social media for years.

You've probably seen it: a photo of a construction worker proudly displaying a Kansas City Chiefs #ChiefsKingdom flag in front of the giant hole in the ground that would one day become Allegiant Stadium, home of the Las Vegas Raiders.

So, is there a hidden advantage at Allegiant for Super Bowl 58?

That construction worker is Gerald Decosta.

In 2017, he claimed to have buried that flag under the stadium while working on the project.

With the Super Bowl in town, the story and post are resurfacing.

So, is it real?

Is there actually a Chiefs flag buried under Allegiant?

We reached out to Decosta this week. His response?

"A good magician never reveals his secrets."

He's not confirming or denying whether the flag is there.

With the most Las Vegas answer ever, Chiefs Kingdom is left to ponder, and maybe hope, that the Arrowhead West legend is real.
