Football Brawl at Ivor Wynne Stadium Sends Spectator To ER (Video)

Football mom Cathy Brady says she is still in shock after a weekend brawl at Ivor Wynne Stadium that sent her husband to hospital with a severe concussion.

Brady and her husband John were watching son Matt — a Hamilton Hurricanes defensive end — play in an Ontario Football Conference semifinal against the St-Léonard Cougars Saturday evening when, with seconds left in the game, up to 20 St-Léonard players climbed into the stands behind their bench and began battling local fans.

Hamilton police claimed no one so far has wanted to file a formal complaint, but Brady says she told officers she wanted a St-Léonard player who accosted her charged.

Brady told The Spectator she was not beside her husband when the fighting began and did not immediately realize he had been knocked unconscious.

Raw unaired video captured by a local cable TV station shows a protracted and violent clash between the St-Léonard players and fans. At one point, a Cougars player clubs a spectator with a black plastic milk crate.

John Brady appears to be swarmed by a group of Cougars and is knocked out cold before falling to the ground. Moments later, a player stomps on a spectator.

I was about to say "Obama voters". I was still half right. Some of those kids might be going to jail.

Looks like they got them some Amish-Canadians up there in the Great White North.

The numbers on the uniforms will make identification easier.

The perps are wearing numbered uniforms so it would seem relatively easy to identify them.

Where the hell are the damn coaches? The kids in the stands go on unabated way too long.

The coaches have the responsibility to get their team off the field. Pathetic!
