Dodgers & Angels Fans Fight In Bleachers During Freeway Series Showdown

The Los Angeles Angels and Los Angeles Dodgers are squaring off on the field this week as the Freeway Series is underway at Dodger Stadium.

Unfortunately, on Tuesday night, a number Angels and Dodgers fans lost their collective cool and engaged in fisticuffs in the outfield bleachers.

From CBS Los Angeles:

According to the guy who recorded the violent altercation, the ugly scene played out in the stadium’s Pavilion section. It started with a war of words between rival fans. In the end, the Angels fan is left bloodied and injured as security walks him off.

Fans weren’t surprised by the escalation, but some were definitely disappointed.

“That’s just wrong because there’s kids here,” said Jessica Montes. “You know, it’s a family thing, and I think it’s pretty bad.”

“This isn’t your life. It’s just a game,” said Lauren Norman.

Security is top of mind for Dodgers fans. Everyone remembers the fight involving Brian Stowe, the Giants fan who was beaten into a coma outside Dodger Stadium. He suffered severe brain injuries.

Fighting at all sports stadiums needs to stop and in a hurry…
