Thursday Night Football is, well, turning out exactly like Thursday Night Football last year. Alex Smith is dinking and dunking; Michael Vick is throwing interceptions. Fortunately, fans, and everyone half asleep in the press box, had a five-minute brawl in the upper decks to watch.
Fight saves fans from watching Chiefs, Eagles
A fight broke out in the stands at the Eagles game, and apparently, it was quite a doozy.

An epic 5 minute brawl just happened right in front of the press box. As I was saying, MOST #Eagles fans are normal.

Pretty good fight broke out in front of the press box, in the upper deck. Several guys involved. Better than the game at the moment.

Visiting writers from Kansas City had apparently not heard about sporting events in Philadelphia beyond a few battery jokes.
There's a fight in the stands, and all the Chiefs writers seem surprised.

Brian Westbrook was involved ... well, a lady wearing his jersey was.
Some of biggest shots were landed by a girl in a Westbrook jersey. Also several guys got stomped. Sorry. No video or pics for those asking

Best fight I've seen at a Philadelphia sports even for years ... and yes I covered the Flyers full-time last year.

An excellent fight has broken out in the stands. Security slow to arrive. I guess in South Philly they let the guys fight it out

Fear not, order eventually prevailed.
There was giant brawl in front of the press box at the game. Apparently 3 rows of fans have been ejected from the stadium.
