That it happened is not surprising. That is happened in a sparsely crowded stadium in Denver, he was able to walk that far without someone of authority getting in the way and the aftermath being no charges were filed all surprise me.

If this were a packed stadium, they were close to each other, and no one of authority could see the punch, I get it. If it were a packed stadium and an entire section started fighting and he came from that far and punch the guy, I get it. If everything was the same and he got arrested for it. All that makes sense.

The absence of charges being filed despite the obvious is what is so strange to me.

Mi sister in law and brother in law live in England. A couple years ago he took me to a Crystal Palace game. Was really wild to see how they separate the supporters. He even made sure I wasn't wearing the away team colors. Overall the game was an amazing experience.

They used to live near where Arsenal plays, he told me you have to show your ticket to get into the bars on gameday to make sure you are a home team supporter. Crazy stuff.

Knicks fan spat on Trae Young last night (and got some on 50 Cent it seems), which I'd argue is worse.
