In Dallas, the disappointment over the Cowboys’ elimination from the playoffs against the San Francisco 49ers was so great that some hooligans started wildly beating each other

While there have been repeated confrontations between hooligans in football over the years, this is unusual in American football. As brutal as it may sometimes be on the field, NFL fans are considered peaceful.

Unfortunately, there seem to be exceptions. Some supporters of the Dallas Cowboys were apparently so disappointed about the play-off elimination against the long-time rival San Francisco 49ers that very aggressive confrontations ensued.

These did not, however, occur in San Francisco, where the game took place, but around the AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas. There, a public viewing event of the playoff game against the 49ers took place, which was attended, among others, by the Cowboys’ cheerleaders.

After the Cowboys lost by a narrow margin of 12:19, clashes broke out between several chaotic people.

Videos on Twitter, some of which were also seen on “Dallas Texas TV”, show several people wildly punching each other around the stadium.
