Six Bengals and Steelers Fans Were Arrested Saturday Night

We threw snowballs at a drunk Santa Claus, and we’re the worst people in the world. If we were just to piss on him or headbutt him or even punch women, we probably wouldn’t have that national reputation of being horrible people. I say those things because a total of six Bengals and Steelers fans were arrested during and after Saturday night’s playoff game in Cincinnati, proving once and for all, hopefully, that shitty people exist everywhere.

Unfortunately, these incidents include people that are from around this area. From Cincinnati.com:

The first altercation occurred in a line to get inside the stadium around 8 p.m. just before the game’s kickoff. Police said it began when Jared McCarty, 19, of Reading, argued with a woman about cutting in line at an entrance gate and stole her Bengals hat.

McCarty, who wore a Bengals jersey, threw the hat away, police said, and the two groups separated only to run into each other again at their seats inside the stadium. The argument resumed in the stands and McCarty allegedly punched the woman in the head, causing her to fall to the ground, court documents state.

Police discovered a fake identification card on McCarty upon his arrest. The teen admitted to drinking alcohol, police said.

McCarty is accused of falsification, underage drinking, theft, and assault. He is scheduled to appear in court Monday.

Ouch. Fake IDs are still a thing? Oh, wait. Jahlil Okafor allegedly had one. Nevermind. Carry on.

What’s next?

A Steelers fan who traveled from Westville, Indiana is accused of punching a woman in the face as he exited Paul Brown Stadium around 10 p.m. Tyler Matthys wore a Steelers jersey when police arrested him and accused him of the assault. His court date is not yet scheduled.

Martin Cooke, 33, of Germantown, Kentucky, was arrested after police said he urinated on the person in front of him in Paul Brown Stadium. Cooke, who wore a Bengals hoodie, is accused of fighting with the man and punching him in the face, court documents state. He is facing disorderly conduct and assault charges. Cooke is scheduled to appear in court Monday.

What a guy. Wonder if he’s related to Matt Cooke, who I wouldn’t put it past him to do something similar. Next, please.

Police said David Grillo, 25, of Belle Vernon, Pennsylvania, was wearing a black jersey as he walked up an aisle in the stadium and threw a beer at a fan during the game. The beer hit the fan in the face and caused lacerations, police said. Grillo is accused of assault. His court date is not yet scheduled.

Grillo likely was testing his arm out after his boy Ben Roethlisberger got hurt. Next.

A Cheviot man who wore a black shirt to the game, is accused of head-butting a man in the face. Phillip Ross, 29, was arrested at Paul Brown Stadium and is accused of assault.

Head-butting is the fad this week. Next.

Andrew Robles, 28, of Allentown, Pennsylvania, was being ejected from the game for an unknown reason when, police said, he escaped officers and punched a woman in the face. Robles, who wore a Steelers jersey, is accused of assault and is scheduled to appear in court Monday.

Oh, man. Allentown. Typical Philly fan. Despite being a Steelers fan. Thanks, Andrew.

I’m not saying that Philly fans aren’t terrible at times, but do you think we’ll hear about this nationally? It’ll be interesting to see.

Oh, this has happened before?

Must be Philly fans in disguise.
