During tailgating action on Sunday, video surfaced showing Philadelphia Eagles fans fighting Philadelphia 76ers star Mike Scott as most assumed because he was rocking a Washington Redskins jersey.

Then, it was said that Scott was enraged because some fans had a coffin at a tailgate that had Sean Taylor’s jersey on it. Turns out that was completely false.

Here’s the fight between Scott and several Eagles fans:

That jersey actually was a shirt that said “Party like its 1991” which was a dig at the last time the Redskins won a Super Bowl.

UPDATE: The coffin supposedly has nothing to do with Sean Taylor.

Also, it seems Eagles fans have been bringing a coffin to every game as far back as last season.

Since that is cleared up, then it brings it back to Eagles fans fighting Mike Scott because he was wearing a different jersey and playing for a local team.
