Sunday was a proud day for the Arizona Cardinals, as the NFC West leaders padded their standings in the division with a hard-fought 24-20 victory over the Philadelphia Eagles. The team is off to strong start, and currently sits at 6-1, making the postseason a serious possibility for an organization that is oft-starved for playoff appearances.
However, despite the victory, Sunday was not a proud day for Arizona Cardinals fans, particularly the Cards fan you see above who could be seen arguing with Eagles fans, yelling at his girlfriend, and generally being way, way too drunk.

The screenshot you see above is deceiving. Maybe it looks like the man and his girlfriend are sharing an intimate moment. Maybe it looks like the stadium was too loud for her to hear what he was saying and, because of that, he had to lean in, closely, so that he could fully communicate everything he wanted to express to her.
Nope. He was actually screaming in her ear, yelling, "COME ONNN CARDINAL FAAAAANS!!!! GET ON. YOUR. FEEEEEEEEEET!!!"
He's definitely a keeper. And if you need any further proof, here is he below, half-naked, waving his shirt above his head, his girlfriend conspicuously absent. According to the YouTube user who uploaded the video, this was the result of "too many beers and his hidden flask".

Yikes. Of course, Arizona wasn't alone in the mess. Philadelphia fans are known for being a scrappy bunch, so you had to figure that the Eagles supporters were going to get into the mix somehow, right?
You won't be disappointed. Below, you can watch an Eagles fan get into it with a couple spectators, one of whom knocks the Philly follower straight to the stairs.
Let's be honest, though. The real hero of this moment was the guy who was constantly screaming, "YOU SUCK, BRETT CELEK! BRETT CELEK, YOU SUCK!"
Overall, though, it wasn't a great day for the image of NFL fans. These types of embarrassments are becoming a weekly occurrence for NFL faithful. Honestly, if concussions, domestic abuse, and mistreatment of players won't shame people out of their NFL fandom, is it at least possible that humiliation by association with these assholes will?
