A Carolina Panthers fan assaulted another fan sitting behind him at Thursday’s game at Bank of America Stadium.
In a video uploaded to Instagram, a man and woman can be seen exchanging words with an older man before the younger man punches him in the face.
The user who uploaded the video Odubco wrote the following
“dude bro & his chicka were standing for the entire game. words gradually got more and more escalated. there previously was a single mom and her son between us, they left halfway through the 3rd. after that, the lid was off. the dude took offense to the couple never sitting down and obstructing his view. the victim telling the dude bro how they’re being jerks and how rude they are for not sitting. the dude bro turns around and calls the victim a “geriatric fuck”, “faggot”, and “hick”. then sucker punches him right in the face. i don’t know if he got away or left in handcuffs, but i hope it’s the latter.
edit: to clarify further, both the puncher and punchee were wearing Panthers attire.
The assailant was seated in section 541, row 24, seat 10.
This video is the latest in a series of violence at NFL games.
