ATLANTA — A father and his son are facing charges after a fight broke out in the stands at Mercedes-Benz Stadium.

The fight happened during the Alabama vs. Florida State game on Saturday.

Video shows the brawl, in which it appears one man throws at least three punches at fans while being escorted out.

“I was kind of shocked. It looked chaotic. Normally, you don’t want things getting out of hand,” one man said.
