Saying the N-word when you are not a Black person can be dangerous to your health, and one fan of the Dallas Stars found that out the hard way.
One social media video is going viral yet again, showing an irate Stars fan inside the American Airlines Center getting into a verbal argument with what appears to be a much larger fan who was above him.
The fan who was rocking a mullet could be heard saying, “Step down here, and I’ll box your ass.”
He then gets a little closer to the much larger Dallas Stars fan, who keeps quiet until he hears the magic word.
The loud-mouthed fan stated, “All right then. Stay the f–k up there. Dumbass n—a.”
That n-word must’ve set the other guy off because he then took his right fist and smashed the smaller guy right in his face as he fell back on a woman below him.
All hell would break loose as the black polo-wearing fan found himself retaliated against by not only the loud-mouthed guy but also another woman wearing a Dallas Stars jersey.
She swung widely as her apparent boyfriend was easily being held down by the guy with one arm.
The Stars fan who initially started the fight could be seen getting pinned down and called “little boy” as he cursed back and squirmed to get out of that position.
“Hell naw,” the Dallas fan could be heard saying while still being restrained. “I ain’t done s–t. He hit me first. F–k that.”
Here is how fans reacted to the fight:
He then made it clear that “He hit me first, right?” speaking to others who were trying to calm everyone down.
“No f–k that. He hit me first, right?”
No matter what he tried to do, he was simply not strong enough to get the bigger man off him.
He was likely held there until arena security got involved.
There’s no word on if both fans were kicked out or if anybody was arrested.
On that night, the Dallas Stars defeated the Minnesota Wild by a score of 4-1.
The Dallas Stars Looking To Go Further During The 2024-2025 Season
Last year, the Dallas Stars went 52-21 in the regular season. They won the Central Division and finished the regular season with a conference-leading 113 points.
The Stars, seeded No. 1 in the Western Conference, defeated the Vegas Golden Knights in seven games in the first round and the Colorado Avalanche in six games in the second round.
However, the good times would stop as the Edmonton Oilers eliminated the team from the Stanley Cup Playoffs in Game 6 of the Western Conference Final.
This marked the second straight season the Dallas Stars were eliminated in six games in the conference final.
The team is looking to return to the Stanley Cup Final for the first time since the 2019-2020 season and win it for the first time since the 1998-1999 season, per hockey reference.
