‘The language was vile, it was disgusting, it was unacceptable and horrific,’ said the company founder. A Philadelphia Eagles fan is beginning to face the serious consequences of his actions after screaming at a Green Bay Packers fan in the Philly stadium.
During the NFL Wild Card round of the playoffs last Sunday Packer fan Alexander Basara posted a clip on X of an Eagles fan heckling his fiancée, who was decked out in Packers gear. “What it’s like going to Philly just trying to root for your team,” his post read, along with a video of the interaction.
“Unprovoked, uncalled for. Packers Twitter, help me out and find this guy .... this is not okay. I hate that my fiancée had this happen simply cheering for her team.,” he added. But that’s not all. “It was diametrically opposed to the values that we espouse at BCT. We’re a company that’s founded on inclusion, on respect, on dignity, and the behavior was just in complete contrary to everything that we stand for at this organization,” Pinkett added.
Caldwell could not immediately be reached for comment. Pinkett said they while Caldwell was let go, the company told him that they hoped he would be capable of moving on from the events of the game. “It’s not just that we have parted ways with Mr. Caldwell, but we were very clear in our statement that we extended grace and support to him, that he could be better,” he said. “What troubles me is his behavior, but what also troubles me is the cancel culture that we live in, that doesn’t afford people grace that we don’t have the opportunity to be better people and learn from our mistakes.”.
