More fights break out at Padres’ Petco Park on Opening Day weekend

Several ugly fights broke out at the San Diego Padres’ stadium during their Opening Day series against the San Francisco Giants last weekend, just a day after a woman slapped a man there.

Two fights took place between a group of men in the concourse of Petco Park on Saturday, as seen in a viral video circulating on X during or after the Padres’ 9-6 loss to the Giants.

The images show a man, wearing a gray sweatshirt, on top of another man in a brown shirt, while he put his right arm around him in an attempt to strangle him although he ultimately did not do so.

‘Stay down!’ A stadium employee can be heard shouting as he tries to calm the situation.

That’s when the camera turned to two other men involved in a different fight nearby.

Another man was seen punching another man who was on the ground on the park esplanade.

In a third fight, a man punched another man while putting his knee in his back.

One of them, who was wearing a long-sleeved shirt and jeans, appeared to land a few punches on his opponent, who was wearing a shirt with the number 44.

At one point, the latter fell to the ground, but that didn’t stop the other guy from still physically hurting him.

The video then showed two other men fighting.

The guy in the gray sweatshirt was seen punching the guy in the brown shirt while he had a knee in his back.

It’s unclear whether fights broke out during or after the Padres’ 9-6 loss to the Giants last weekend.

Sand workers intervened to separate those fighting, as there were no reports of arrests.

Stadium workers intervened to separate the two boys, once and for all.

No reports of injuries or arrests were made.

Just 24 hours earlier on Friday, a video on X showed a woman slapping a man before he retaliated by trying to push her down the stairs during San Diego’s 8-3 loss.

The Giants and Padres ultimately split the series, 2-2.

Next up for San Diego is a home game against the St. Louis Cardinals on Monday.
