A 27-year-old man was taken to the hospital with second and third-degree burns after he tried to wear a jersey that was on fire after the Cowboys-Packers game Sunday, the Sebastian Daily reports.
Following the Cowboys loss to the Packers Sunday night, a witness told the Sebastian Daily, the jersey burning happened as a result of a lost bet.
Police spoke to the couple who admitted they'd burn the jersey of the losing team.
He was set on fire after losing a bet on the Cowboys game … Skin was hanging off his arm and back," the witness said.
When his wife's team, the Packers, won the game, the man went outside and lit his jersey on fire. He reportedly told police he was drunk and tried to put the jersey on while it was burning.
