Two Mississippi High School Football Scouts Got Into a Fight While in the Stands

Football can bring out the worst in some people.

The high school football season kicked off last night in the fine state of Mississippi, and rather than it being like Friday Night Lights, it was more like Thursday Night Fights. Two High School football scouts got into a bloody brawl in the stands.

Via the NY Post:

A high school football coach wound up with a bloody head and face after an altercation at a Mississippi game he was reportedly scouting.

In now-viral videos, two men can be seen screaming at each other, when a man in a dark t-shirt and khaki shorts yells, “shut your damn mouth” at another male dressed in a blue t-shirt and white shorts. The latter was filmed screaming lewd messages before the fight broke out.

The altercation was captured on video by fans in the stands and quickly circulated on Twitter and Facebook.

“This happened right in front of us at the game,” Kortney ShyAnne Hudson wrote in a Thursday Facebook post, which included the footage. “It’s a shame that you can’t go to a football game and enjoy it. This is Heidelbergs head coach!”

Watch the fight below:

Heidelberg Head football coach Jimbo Nowell appeared to be getting into a fistfight with another man at a football game.

Nowell, whose team recently won a district title, is shown to be arguing with a man before the fight breaks out that led to his face being bloody in the aftermath.

I thought football was supposed to be fun?
