A viral and revolting incident in the stands at an NFL playoff game on Sunday has already earned one football fan a lifetime ban from Lincoln Financial Field — and it ended up costing him his job.
The fan, identified as Ryan Caldwell, was captured on video heckling a female Packers fan — and repeatedly calling her a “dumb c–t” — while her fiancé, Alexander Basara, filmed the entire altercation in the stands during Sunday’s wild-card game in Philly, an Eagles win over the Packers.

Caldwell has been banned from all future events at Lincoln Financial Field, a source with knowledge of the situation confirmed to The Post, and his employer, BCT Partners — a DEI-focused management consulting firm based in East Brunswick, N.J. — is involved.
“The management at BCT Partners has been made aware of a video circulating involving an employee making offensive remarks outside of the workplace,” the company said in a statement released Monday on X, without naming the employee. “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.”
...
Later Tuesday, BCT Partners decided to fire Caldwell.
According to internet sleuths, the fan is a project manager with the company.
BCT Partners aims “to harness the power of diversity, insights, and innovation to transform lives, accelerate equity, and create lasting change,” according to its website.

“Project managers” are a dime a dozen.
How is this different from any other Eagles fan?
I just checked.
The small DEI company has gotten millions in federal funding.
Now I’m really suspicious.
They likely fired the foul-mouthed fan likely because the company doesn’t want anyone taking a good look at what it’s doing with all that taxpayer money...
boorish behavior and the husband should have given him a knuckle sandwich, but not sure he deserves to be fired over it, since it was off the clock.
Regardless, a company that focuses on DEI garbage shouldn’t even be legal imo.
What a messed up situation all around.
Money coming from HUD and HHS...
That’s for starters.
See my replies #4 and #6.
This guy deserved some consequences for his behavior, but losing his job because of that is too much.
We need to be careful with what looks like digital Witch hunting or keyboard vigilantism.
It’s easy to be pointed at the wrong target.
Always follow the money.
Thinking of you, backhoe...
I watched the video. Sounded like whoever she was with, assume boyfriend, asked the guy to stop calling her a dump c..t. Dude then doubled down calling her an ugly dumb c..t. Boyfriend’s response was then “cool, cool.” That made no sense to me. If you’re going to confront the guy, you gotta launch at the point he doubled down. At least get the smack talk going if you’re not willing to fight at that point.
She’ll for sure dump him, if he was a boyfriend.
HELLO DOGE!!!!
So.
That means the administration should absolutely look into what the company is doing with the millions received in federal funding.
Oh, yeah, baby.
BTW, speaking of DOGE...
Note to Elon Musk: I’d’ve loved to share this info on X, but I can’t. Still banned.
Aaaaaaargh.
Asking for a friend:
What kind of person, that works in a “DEI-focused management consulting firm” feels comfortable in the public use of the phrase “dumb c–t”; almost as if he’s ‘untouchable’ or protected by a special demographic status.
Then, when the company performs an internal investigation on the incident, no information is forthcoming other than “conduct displayed was completely unacceptable and stands in direct opposition to our company values.”
They can add BetterUp to that list, too, BTW.
I’d like to see their CHIMPO explain where all that federal taxpayer money is going...
He’s a fag, mewzilla.
No one dares say it.
So...the young lady’s beau elected to capture video rather than defend her honor?
Sad commentary on today’s society...
To learn who rules over you, simply find out who you are not allowed to criticize
There’s going to be a federal funding reckoning for DEI and green scams, if the administration does even half of what I expect them to….
