Lincoln Financial Field has hosted Philadelphia Eagles home games for more than two decades.&nbsp; During that time, the football stadium located in the South Philadelphia Sports Complex has developed a reputation for being one of the toughest places in the NFL for opposing teams to visit. Eagles fans routinely flock to what locals affectionately refer to as "the Linc" and create a raucous environment.&nbsp; But during Sunday's wild-card round game against the Green Bay Packers, one Eagles fan was seen relentlessly berating a woman who was wearing Packers gear.

At one point, the man appears to call the woman "dumb."&nbsp; 'INNER EXCELLENCE' TOPS AMAZON AFTER EAGLES STAR CAUGHT READING IT DURING GAME "What it’s like going to Philly just trying to root for your team…" a social media user captioned a video showing at least a portion of the unsavory exchange. "Unprovoked, uncalled for. Packers twitter, help me out and find this guy … this is not okay."  The video garnered more than 18 million views on X, formerly known as Twitter, as of Monday afternoon. Another male in the video tells the Eagles fan to stop calling the woman names, to which the aggressor responds by saying, "She’s an ugly, dumb c---. You going to do anything? F--- up and watch the game." The woman who was the source of the Eagles fan's apparent angst remained largely calm throughout the video. However, she did make a "boo-hoo" gesture at one point. It is unclear whether the Eagles fan will face any punishment from the team.
