The incident occurred during Sunday Night Football’s contest between the Patriots and the Chiefs. As the Chiefs were attempting a comeback, Tyreek Hill caught a pass from quarterback Patrick Mahomes and outran Patriot defenders on his way to the end zone. His momentum carried him to the stands where Patriots fans awaited him with a very cold, greeting:
