    Post game.

    … a fan pouring a drink on Brown as he gave his gloves to someone in the stands.

    So, not an ironic Lambeau Leap or [other antagonist shit Terrell Owens used to do].

    Brown said on Monday that he felt the liquid and declined to escalate things on the field before adding “please don’t pour drinks on us.”

    Pretty reasonable response.

    I never know how to respond to this shit honestly. It’s beyond stupid and that fan should get banned, but Ted Karras talking about how it’s endangering the players just seems stupid.

      I suppose it could endanger them if it was coffee, or something worse. And there’s always the possibility of copycats. Idiotic thing for a fan to do.

    Just curious, did they also investigate the incident with Amon Ra that made the Netflix documentary? It seems to happen a lot, not sure you can successfully ban drunk assholes.
