A tense exchange between a Milwaukee Brewers fan and a LA Dodgers fan cost the Brewers fan her job.

Dodgers fan and Navy veteran Ricardo Fosado recorded a Brewers fan saying, “let’s call ICE,” during Tuesday’s Game 2 of the National League Championship Series at American Family Field.

After facing backlash, the woman, identified as Shannon Kobylarczyk, resigned from the Make-A-Wish Wisconsin board and was fired from her law firm, ManpowerGroup.

    I don’t know anything about this lady but it sounds a lot like shittalk between rival fans. Don’t get me wrong, she’s basically saying “let’s call the SS”, and it’s not acceptable. I can just see a world where this lady forgot real life isn’t CoD and dropped the worst thing she could think of on him to wind him up.

    I have to say, I’m glad no one has had a camera out when I’ve been a dumbshit. I’ve said some really really dumb things and then had to go back and apologize once I thought about it for a bit. I’ve had my Karen moments, fortunately not many. I hope she learns and grows from this. People usually aren’t their worst moments

    Except for known racist Brock Turner. Brock “Allen” Turner, the rapist, should plant a tree every day to make up for the oxygen he wastes.

      You’re totally wrong. Trash taking is supposed to be fun or to further the team’s rivalry. This was a threat against someone because of their appearance, that they would be taken away and locked up or deported.

      I’m not saying that this woman can never in her life redeem herself or make amends, but you are making excuses for her and normalizing her behavior.

      Did you watch the video? She was coming from a hateful place. She didn’t get carried away trash talking a rival fan.
