Police have quelled a riot that broke out at the home of an NFL fan that sent several people to a local hospital for various cuts and bruises. There were twenty seven arrests mostly for disorderly conduct and public intoxication . "We got the call at 3:15PM" said Police Chief Lawrence Frazier. Apparently the home owner had inadverdently posted a blanket invitation to other fans when it was learned that their teams football game was going to be blacked out. Over two hundered team suppporters showed up. Frazier said "when we got there it was sheer bedlam. Furniture was crashing through windows, cars had been overturned, and there were chicken wings everywhere." Eyewitnesses said that the large crowd was generally well behaved for most of the game. The trouble began when one guest identified only as "LSI Cadet" made the comment "Losman equals RJ" or something to that effect. After that the melee broke out and ended only when Swat teams arrived and began firing tear gas. The home owner (who asked to not be identified pending an insurance investigation) was quoted as saying "I really don't understand how this happened. They are usually a very well mannered and good natured group."

 

Despite the trouble the remaining fans who stayed through the tear gas left in the few vehicles that survided chanting GOOOOO BILLLLLLS!!!!!!!!!!!!!
