During the 2018 NFL season, there were many reported fights at the LA Coliseum, but one of them just might hit the franchise in the pockets real soon.
One fan who attended a game featuring the Los Angeles Rams and Minnesota Vikings had him bloodied and bruised, and now he’s placing the blame squarely on the shoulders of the franchise.
TMZ reports:
“The man is Peter Bergin — who claims he was at the Rams-Vikings game on Sept. 27 when a drunk fan approached him and his girlfriend at a concession stand line and started causing problems.
Bergin alleges the wasted guy tried to punch another fan … and when he stepped in to take the shot for her — he suffered a broken nose and dislocated knee in the process.
Bergin says the attack was so violent, his girlfriend was knocked down in the melee and she slammed her head on the concrete floor.
Now, Bergin is suing the Rams … saying the organization failed to provide enough security at the stadium to prevent these kinds of incidents.
Bergin’s attorney, Barry Novack, tells us they believe the attacker was overserved alcohol, which “caused him to be a danger to those around him.”
Bergin also claims the Rams failed to provide him with medical help immediately after the assault.”
The Rams have not commented on the attack.
