It was mainly that one guy, but at least one more fan got involved in putting hands on MIxon to keep him out of the stands.
The running back clearly learned his lesson and settled for one of LeBron James's celebrations when he scored another touchdown a few minutes later.
Joe Mixon has another touchdown!

Let this be a lesson to all opposing players. Some fans like to pretend they're bouncers and the Lambeau seats are an exclusive club. Invite only.
