Slurring fan crashes postgame news conference of Eagles coach Doug Pederson

PHILADELPHIA — You’ve heard of wedding crashers. After the Philadelphia Eagles defeated the Dallas Cowboys 17-9 on Sunday, coach Doug Pederson’s postgame news conference was crashed by a slurring fan.

The fan, who slurred his words in a room full of reporters at Lincoln Financial Field, managed to ask a question before he was escorted out of the room by a stadium security officer, WPVI reported.

The fan, who had a beer in his hand, slurred a few words before asking Pederson a question about New York Giants quarterback Eli Manning, who will face the Eagles in the regular-season finale for both teams, according to The Philadelphia Inquirer.

A confused Pederson called “time out” during his own news conference, Philly Voice reported.

“Who, who is this? Is he credentialed?” Pederson asked.

As the man was led away, Pederson said, “Holy cow. This will be on ‘SportsCenter.’”
