This is absolutely freaking ridiculous. At a childrens football game, really, you ppl need to get a grip and grow the hell up. I live about 10 mins from that park but my daughter is cheering for the Solomon’s steelers this year and she will continue cheering with them bc this crap is out of control
Trash
Well at least they didn’t start shooting each other like the normal Lexington park way
Let the games begin. Unbelievable!!
To act like this in front of children, seriously are horrible role models. These kids deserve a safe and fun place to play and Lancaster is such a beautiful park, y’all can’t have anything nice.
Such good role models
And we wonder why our youth are so screwed up
