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.
“Who, who is this? Is he credentialed?” Pederson asked.
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.
As the man was led away, Pederson said, “Holy cow. This will be on ‘SportsCenter.’”
