Following the Thursday night game between the Giants and the 49ers, a tumultuous brawl erupted among several fans in the stands, resulting in at least two individuals being left bloodied.
The altercation unfolded shortly after San Francisco emerged victorious over New York at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara, California. According to a witness, the skirmish was triggered by incessant trash-talking between fans, culminating in someone tossing a beer that unintentionally landed on a woman.

As soon as the liquid struck the woman, chaos erupted, and video footage obtained by TMZ Sports reveals that violence escalated rapidly. One fan donning a Joe Montana jersey bore the brunt of numerous punches to his face, causing his nose to bleed profusely.
In close proximity, two Giants supporters were observed exchanging heavy punches with a man in 49ers attire. The blows were so direct that a cut opened above the right eye of the Niners fan. To his credit, the San Francisco supporter defended himself, landing several punches before making a hasty exit from the area.
While a witness reported that authorities eventually arrived to address the altercation in the stands, most of those involved had dispersed by the time they got there. The Santa Clara Police Department has confirmed that they are conducting a further investigation into the incident.
It’s worth noting that this fight was not the only one at the stadium that evening. Just a few hours prior, in a different section of the venue, a man was seen pulling a woman’s hair during a separate scuffle.
