There was a little action on the field at Sunday’s game between the Las Vegas Raiders and Los Angeles Chargers at SoFi Stadium, but perhaps not as much as there was among the spectators, some of whom were barely paying attention to the game.
As the website TMZ reported with videos that were atmospheric to say the least, tension was at its peak in the stands of the stadium where the Chargers won 24-17. A few held back not from the outcome of the game, but from their misfortunes, which ended in punches and slaps.

Notably, two women had issues despite sharing their allegiance to the Raiders. After an exchange of venomous words, one of them – dressed in defensive end Maxx Crosby’s jersey – began throwing punches at her opponent, who was sitting about two rows down. She had a glass in her hand and had to give up the remaining contents.
Then a fan of the Nevada team in another part of the stadium noticed that opposing fans don’t always hear laughter. He was punched in the face by a spectator cheering on the Chargers and pushed down the stairs in the neighboring area. It took the intervention of a third party – wearing a Raiders jersey – to calm the situation.
The two clubs will meet again on December 14th, this time in Las Vegas.
