According to the Philadelphia Inquirer, a Detroit Lions fan claims he was beaten and left unconscious by a group of Eagles’ fans after the two teams met this past Sunday in Philadelphia.

Here’s an excerpt from the Inquirer article:

As he walked along Pattison near the Xfinity Live complex, a group of men in their 20s in Eagles jerseys began shouting and throwing snowballs at him.

“I tried to keep my head down and avoid them,” he said. “I didn’t want to give them the satisfaction.”

As he crossed the street, heading toward the train, six of the men blocked his path and continued to scream at him.

“I was like, ‘Are you guys serious? You won, enjoy it.’ “

The smallest man slapped his head from the side. Another man then pushed him from behind, and the group bum-rushed him, he said.

The unidentified Lions fan apparently tried to defend himself but was out maned as he was reportedly punched and choked to the ground. This was in addition to the fan also reportedly being pelted with snowballs and other various objects while in the stadium as well.

But not all Philadelphia fans lived up to their notorious reputation that day as the victim reported that other Eagles fans helped him up when he awoke from the beating.
