In the video, the staffer is seen confronting a fan who was apparently heckling the team. The staffer can be heard threatening to “come down there and deal with you” if the fan does not stop heckling. The fan responds by telling the staffer to “get lost” and that he has the right to express his opinions.
The video has since gone viral on social media, with many fans expressing their shock and disappointment at the staffer’s behavior. Some have criticized the staffer for using threats and intimidation towards a fan who was simply expressing his support for the team.
