It’s not exactly uncommon for sports fans to start fighting with one another. Opposing teams can quite literally butt heads when they play a game, and it’s reflected both on the field and in the stands.

But rarely does a brawl break out within one base of sports fans – unless I guess if someone swipes someone else’s hot dog.

However, Houston Texans fans began absolutely going at each other on the concourse.

On Sunday, (17 September) the NFL team lost against the Indianapolis Colts at 31-20.

And it seems like all that frustration began to boil over before the game even ended.

Around the third quarter, a fight began in a concessions area at the NRG Stadium in Houston.

At this point (and sorry to remind the fans still recovering from the blow to the team), the Texans were trailing behind at 31-10.

In a video shared to X, fans can be seen absolutely punching the s**t out of eachother.

The majority of them wearing their team’s jerseys and T-shirts, a load of them are knocked to the ground as some fans try and break them up.

But they just keep going for one another with no clear reason as to why exactly they are even fighting.

Others stand around sipping pints of beer and filming while they just keep punching and tackling one another.

The video unsurprisingly went viral on X, racking up nearly 200,000 views in 24 hours.

Users joked it showed ‘a whole group of people that can’t fight’.

With another writing: “Luckily none of them know how to fight.”

One even put: “Complete train wreck. This is exactly how the Texans season is going to go.”

Others put: “All should get six months in jail doing that around children is ridiculous.”

And another said: “This B.S. needs to stop. I hope all involved were arrested and banned from ever attending events there again,” with another adding: “Ban alcohol at games!”

In another NFL fan nightmare, Nicki Dower was one fan told by a pub that if the Jets lost their game, drinks would be on the house.

However, the gamble didn’t quite work out and the drinking fans ended up having to pay a hefty bar tab. They were devastated unsurprisingly. Ouch.
