An Alabama football fan was forcefully removed from Bryant-Denny Stadium Saturday night after sticking her cigarette in the face of a police officer.

It seems likely that the woman started smoking, people in her section complained, and then the officer showed up and asked her to stop. Instead of putting out the cig, she puts it very close to the police officer’s face.

That went about as well as you’d think. The police officer wasted no time before literally dragging her out of her seat.

Turns out sticking a cigarette in a police officer’s face is probably never a great idea. Did she think there was any positive outcome to not complying? For some reason, she chose the door that ended with her getting dragged out of a stadium.

You go to football games to enjoy the night, have a couple beers and get into the atmosphere of the stadium. You’re not there to get dragged out by the police. I hate to say it, but I think this lady absolutely had it coming. Can’t be lighting up cigs in a stadium and expect to get away with it.
