The NFL pre-season kicked off earlier this month as teams are preparing to take the field in September. But some fans are already in mid-season form.

Rams, Cowboys Fans Involved in Heated Brawl
A group of Cowboys fans were more unhappy with the loss than the actual team. In a video captured by TMZ, they approached a group of Rams fans in the parking lot and things got pretty ugly.
“The fight went down right outside the SoFi gates in Los Angeles … where video shows a fan wearing an Aaron Donald jersey getting thrown to the ground by a guy rockin’ Troy Aikman threads — before delivering some big blows to the head of the guy on the ground who appears to be out cold,” TMZ writes.
In the aftermath of the video the battered Rams fan is helped to his feet by other onlookers and the camera zooms in to show his face bloodied. Like something straight out of a movie.
