Video: NFL Fan Catches Fire During Tailgate In Buffalo On Sunday

Who could have envisioned slamming through a burning table being so dangerous?

Fans are amping up for Sunday’s AFC Divisional Round showdown between the Buffalo Bills and Kansas City Chiefs at Orchard Park. Before the game, members of Bills Mafia conducted the bizarre, hazardous ritual of ignoring WWE’s “Please don’t try this at home” PSAs by mimicking a popular wrestling trope.

A fan channeled John Cena by putting another tailgater over his shoulders and performing his “Attitude Adjustment” maneuver from a vehicle’s hood through a burning table. In a scenario they should seen coming, the guy sent through the table caught fire, prompting him to drop to the icy ground as spectators tried to help.

Here’s a look at the video:

Bills Mafia, you’re not Mick Foley. Maybe just eat some hot dogs, drink (responsibly), and find safer ways to keep warm on a cold winter day in Buffalo.

Hopefully that fan is OK and avoided any significant injuries. It’d be a shame if he missed another playoff battle between Josh Allen and Patrick Mahomes because he never got past the middle school phase of play-wrestling.

After starting 6-6, the Bills were in danger of missing the playoffs. Now, they’re hosting their second playoff game following a 31-17 win over the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Buffalo and Kansas City will collide for the third time in the last four postseasons. The Chiefs won the previous meetings at home, but Mahomes will play the first official road playoff game of his career. (The Super Bowls are considered a neutral venue.)

The star quarterback will encounter a hostile crowd full of fans who consider crashing through tables their idea of fun. Sunday’s game starts at 6:30 p.m. ET on CBS.
