The NFL Must Ban Native Headdress And Culturally Insensitive Face Paint in the Stands

Editor’s Note: On Nov. 27, Deadspin published an opinion piece criticizing the NFL for allowing a young fan to attend the Kansas City Chiefs game against the Las Vegas Raiders on Nov. 26 wearing a traditional Native American headdress and, based upon the available photo, what appeared to be black face paint.

Unfortunately the article drew attention to the fan, though our intended focus was on the NFL and its checkered history on race, an issue which our writer has covered extensively for Deadspin. Three years ago, the Chiefs banned fans from wearing headdresses in Arrowhead Stadium, as well as face painting that “appropriates American Indian cultures and traditions.” The story’s intended focus was the NFL and its failure to extend those rules to the entire league.

We regret any suggestion that we were attacking the fan. To that end, our story was updated on Dec. 7 to remove any photos, tweets, links, or otherwise identifying information about the fan. We have also revised the headline to better reflect the substance of the story.

First few moments of last nights game showed a Steelers fan face-painted half Balck, half yellow. Isn't that double-dipping in insensitivity? Why have I heard nothing about this? Granted, he was not wearing a headdress.

New headline, second update added to the story, and any reference to the kid or blackface are completely gone from the body of the article. Slug line still references it though.



"We're sorry you made the mistake of thinking that an article with a headline referencing a fan in blackface using a picture of a young fan in black face paint and an article urging the NFL to speak out on that fan in that black face paint, was intended to be about the young fan."

The long awaited lawsuit is here !

Deadspin has no money

The long awaited lawsuit is here !

The Armenta family claim in the lawsuit that they “repeatedly wrote to Deadspin demanding that it retract the Article and apologize,” which the site did not do. They also claim that “Deadspin’s lawyers threatened the Armenta family with counter-legal action should Raul and Shannon attempt to hold Phillips and Deadspin accountable for their false and defamatory Article.”

Good. I hope the family wins. Deadspin is nothing but click bait trash. Like the National Enquirer or something.

Their counter-suit threat probably included the caveat that the family promise not to contest it.
