Divisional rivalries are no joke in the NFL. Say what you will about how diehard and bleeding-heart Los Angeles sports fans tend to be in general, but you can’t question the dedication of one Rams fan who decided to pick a fight with a George Kittle jersey-wearing adversary in Week 3 at SoFi Stadium.
If you’re going to rock Kittle’s No. 85, you gotta have some innate grit to yourself as a human being. Based only on the jerseys of two quarreling fans, you’d think a Rams guy wearing Cooper Kupp’s No. 10 would get his world rocked by a Kittle guy. It sure started out that way in this old-fashioned duel of fisticuffs, as the San Francisco supporter took a jab square on the chin before his significant other intervened:

The Rams didn’t draw first blood on the field yesterday, but they ultimately prevailed as the road underdog despite apparent impossible real-time odds.

You could say the same was true in this here fight. Things escalated once that big punch to the jaw transpired, as multiple other bystanders got into the mix. Unfortunately, the woman who was first protecting her Kittle-representing man hit the deck. Whomever sent her to the canvas should be spending the night in jail to say the least. Two men duking it out is one thing. A lady getting caught in the crossfire is where anyone should draw the line.
In an epic plot twist, though, the woman’s efforts to wall off the Cooper Kupp instigator left her beau exposed to another, more heavyweight-caliber Rams fan, who cornered Kittle Guy, nailed him right in the kisser and dropped him to the hard, unforgiving stadium concourse.
Having just covered an altercation between Vikings and Texans fans, it’s always dismaying to see yet another cluster of liquid courage-fueled live sports attendees escalate a disagreement to such a violent state. What ever happened to diplomacy? Surely a sports-related conflict can be resolved with words rather than throwing hands. I guess behavior like this will continue in perpetuity. See y’all on the next round.
