A video circulating on social media appeared to show Alabama Crimson Tide football fans yelling racist slurs and anti-gay taunts at players from the University of Texas during the latter school’s 34-24 upset win over Alabama on Saturday. The video, which was posted on X, the platform formerly known as Twitter, showed fans at Bryant-Denny Stadium in Tuscaloosa, Alabama, shouting anti-gay slurs and telling players for the Texas Longhorns to go back to the projects and calling them “fucking f****ts” while they celebrated their team’s victory. According to Fox News, the taunts and slurs appeared to be directed primarily toward a group of Black University of Texas football players that included defensive backs X’Avion Brice, Jelani McDonald, and B.J. Allen Jr., and running back Quintrevion Wisner. Wisner’s mother, Angie, wrote a post about the verbal abuse directed towards the Texas players and claimed that Alabama fans threw objects at the parents of Texas players during the game. April Finkley, the mother of Texas pass-rusher Justice Finkley, who hails from Alabama, also recounted, in a tweet since deleted, being harassed by Alabama fans. A spokesman for the University of Alabama condemned the unruly behavior.
