Share and Follow

The Eagles fan who verbally abused a female Packers supporter is under investigation by his employers, who branded his comments ‘completely unacceptable’.

The foul-mouthed rant, which has gone viral in recent days, took place at Lincoln Financial Field as the Eagles cruised to a 22-10 win over the Packers in the Wild Card round of the NFL playoffs. 

At one point, Eagles fan Ryan Caldwell, who works for a DEI-focused management consulting firm in East Brunswick, New Jersey, refers to the woman as an ‘ugly, dumb c***’. 

That sparks a confrontation with her fiance, who is filming the incident. 

‘What it’s like going to Philly just trying to root for your team,’ Packers fan Alexander Basara captioned the video on X. 

‘Unprovoked, uncalled for. Packers twitter, help me out and find this guy…. this is not okay. I hate that my (fiancee) had this happen simply cheering for her team.’

Ryan Caldwell’s profile at BCT Partners uses ‘they/them’ pronouns

NFL fans rallied around the couple and, according to TMZ, the Eagles have identified Caldwell and are considering their response to the incident.

On Monday, BCT Partners – a management consultant firm based in New Jersey – released a statement on the incident.

The company – which aims to ‘harness the power of diversity, insights, and innovation to transform lives, accelerate equity, and create lasting change’ – apologized over the rant and said it had begun a ‘full investigation’ into its employee.

Caldwell’s profile, describing him as a business analyst, uses ‘they/them’ pronouns to detail his roles in hospitality management dating back to 2002. 

‘The management at BCT Partners has been made aware of a video circulating involving an employee making offensive remarks outside of the workplace,’ he said.

‘BCT Partners denounces this type of behavior, and we take this matter extremely seriously. 

‘As an organization that has always stood for inclusivity, the conduct displayed was completely unacceptable and stands in direct opposition to our company values.

‘We have already begun a full investigation as an internal personnel matter to determine what actions will be taken. 

‘We sincerely apologize to everyone affected by this behavior and remain committed to fostering a culture of respect for all.’

In the video, Caldwell is seen shouting at the woman – who is wearing a Packers beanie – from his seat in the row behind.

After a play is reviewed by officials, he is heard taunting the couple. ‘It’s not a touchdown, so you don’t jerk off c** in the air.’

Basara responded: ‘Ok, well don’t call her a dumb c***.’ That prompted an angry response from Caldwell.

‘She’s an ugly, dumb c***,’ the Eagles fan snapped back. ‘You gonna do anything?’

Basara’s fiancee did not appear to be hurt by the man’s words. 

‘I’m ugly, I’m so hurt,’ she said, pretending to cry and later telling Basara the Eagles fan ‘looks like a f***ing idiot.’

Caldwell later told Basara to ‘shut the f*** up’ and to ‘turn around, watch the game.’
