## Week 1 went sideways
A Rams fan and a 49ers fan traded punches Thursday night at a Los Angeles watch party, after an argument reportedly spun out of control.
## Inside Cosm in Inglewood
Fans packed the venue near SoFi Stadium to watch the Rams and 49ers open the season in Melbourne, Australia, the first NFL game ever played there.
## A flying leap on video
Instagram footage posted Friday shows a shirtless Rams fan launching himself over a row of seats and landing on a 49ers fan in a white T-shirt.
## Who started it
The person who filmed it blamed the man in the white shirt, saying he was trading insults and got asked to stop about four times before anything happened.

> The guy with the white T-shirt is the one who started the whole argument.
## Food and tables flying
The shirtless fan kept swinging while the other man lay on the ground. The clip ends before anyone breaks it up, so injuries and police response are unknown.

> Became a WWE arena.
## The internet piled on
Commenters roasted both fans, and the 49ers got the last word on the field anyway, crushing the Rams 27-7 to open the 2026 season.

> Paid money to watch a game, left with an elbow to the face from the top row.
## Key takeaway

Week 1 of the 2026 season kicked off in Melbourne, but the loudest hit of the night landed in an Inglewood venue.
