Bills' Spencer Brown fined $5K for celebrating TD with fan's beer

[Ridgewaycynic2013]

Somehow there's a Josh Gordon / Steve Howe bad analogy running around in this thread, but I am not smart enough to craft it. 🤔

it will be forever an epic pic and in my opinion well worth the fine he incurred!

I was expecting this and I'm sure Spencer was too.

 

I believe he got a good deal for the publicity and endearment of Bills fans.

 

His performance that day was probably not good publicity.....

He will probably make more than that back making a commercial for Bud!

 

He should get fine paid by Bud just for the publicity.

That's a whole lot of money for a really, really bad beer.

Just add it to the number of other good choices he made from that game 😂

 

I'm not bothered by it at all, but man, I can't remember a game when a Bills O-linemen was so visible & in the spotlight (and for all the wrong reasons). Usually, they fly under the radar & get some praise/criticism on specific plays, but Brown wanted to make damn sure the commentators reminded us of his name all day long lol

How much money does 1 bud light cost now days?

 

I stopped buying in 1974, was $5

Have you been stealing them since 1974?

What is the actual rule he broke here? Players are now allowed to have (in some cases fairly elaborate) TD celebrations. Was this for “using a prop?” I mean, I personally wouldn’t drink from a random fan’s beer, but isn’t the $18 backwash enough punishment for this celebration? 
 

edit: rookie move. I posted without reading the article. It was indeed for using a “prop.” No fun league indeed.

So. When Bobby Lane drank beer & whiskey during games in the 50’s, it wasn’t a prop?😳🤦‍♂️

I mean... Bud Light is the official sponsor of the NFL.  He just gave them free advertising and now he is fined? hahahaha

Hypocrisy has never stopped the NFL lol

Its like Spencer was somehow channeling 80s hair band metal videos ! He should have crushed that can against his helmet after finishing!

Here's to ruining more fans' beers today.

5000 is pricey for a beer.   He could have gotten about 20 Sam Adams Utopias for that

Fined? He should get paid $5000 for forcing himself to drink Bud Light.

Diggs was in on the celly… wouldn’t be surprised if he picks up most or all of the fine for the rookie 

A grown ass man says celly?
