Fans fighting in the stands at sporting events is nothing new, but recently stadium brawls have started to bleed onto official league channels. Just a couple weeks ago the NFL posted a video on X with fans fighting in the background as KhaDarel Hodge celebrated a game-winning touchdown.
Now fan fights have come to the NBA where Tyler Herro of the Miami Heat ended up cutting a postgame interview short because there was a fan fight distracting him.
Herro, who had scored 14 points in the Heat's 120-117 win over the San Antonio Spurs, was speaking to Bally Sports Sun's Kelly Saco when he noticed some fans throwing down in the stands. Saco, realizing she had lost Herro, quickly let him go.
