An NFL fan at Sunday's Falcons vs. Saints game should be banned from all stadiums for life. The Falcons topped the Saints, 26-24, in a wild finish in an NFC South rivalry contest on Sunday.

There were several fights that took place at Mercedes-Benz Stadium on Sunday.
One fight in particular went viral on social media. A fan in a white No. 8 Falcons jersey appeared to stomp another fan in the head multiple times as he was motionless on the ground.
