They say everyone has a doppelgänger in the world. And it just so happens that Chiefs head coach Andy Reid’s doppelgänger lives in Kansas City, which makes for some hilarious moments sure to leave fans second-guessing.
Matt Black has become a fan favorite among Chiefs fans for his uncanny resemblance to Reid. It’s enough to make anyone second guess if they’re actually witnessing Reid or not.
“I thought, if I can do a little bit on my side to bring a little fun, a little joy into people’s lives, then that’s what I’m doing,” Black said, via FOX 4.
That was certainly the case during Saturday’s Kansas City Royals game, where cameras caught someone who looked like Reid taking selfies in the stands. At one point, even Bleacher Report believed that it was actually Reid snapping selfies while in the stands at Kauffman Stadium. And they certainly weren’t alone. The resemblance is startling.
This guy was in fact NOT Andy Reid… 😅 https://t.co/gZBcY9Oryj

Black first started impersonating Reid in 2018 for Halloween. After some nudging from his children, he finally joined Tik Tok last year, where his Almost Andy Reid account — with over 250,000 followers — is dedicated to everything Reid and the Chiefs.
“My favorite thing is, I don’t really have to act too much because you’d be surprised at how similar we really are in real life. People are kind of surprised,” Black said, via FOX 4. “We have about the same gait when we walk, mustache is pretty similar. We got the little crooked thing.”
Even during the NFL offseason, Black continues to provide plenty of laughs and keep us all on our toes.
