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

You can see a picture of the banner above -- from far away -- via Twitter user @Chiefsallday58. Here's another shot of it:

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.
