Patriot fan targeted by Raiders fan in viral video gifted VIP experience to Bengals game

FOXBORO, Mass. — Jerry Edmond, the Patriots fan seen in a viral video being yelled at by a Raiders fan following the team’s loss last week, spent Saturday enjoying the sights and sounds from the owner’s box at Gillette Stadium.

Patriots owner Robert Kraft extended an invitation to Edmond to watch Saturday’s game against the Cincinnati Bengals. Upon arriving at Gillette, Kraft met with Emond. A video of the meeting was posted to the team’s twitter page.

“What you did was so classy, and you represent what our whole franchise is about, building bridges,” Kraft can be heard saying to Edmond in the video. “It’s kind of cold, how about if you come to our suite and watch the game there?” Kraft continued.

“Words cannot express how grateful l am for this experience. I want to thank @BabzOnTheMic, @patriots, and everyone that was so kind to me and pushing this story out there with their comments I will never forget this moment. Thank you . God Bless you all and Happy Holidays” Edmond tweeted following the game.

The Patriots were down 22-0 at the half Saturday, but almost made a comeback that fell short following a turnover in the red zone. The Patriots ended up losing to the Bengals 22-18.
