Fans in Cleveland are using Myles Garrett’s actions against Mason Rudolph to put a new twist on an old tradition.

Sunday, before the Browns hosted the Miami Dolphins, fans were swinging a Pittsburgh Steelers helmet at a piñata designed to look like Rudolph. Garrett was suspended by the NFL after swinging Rudolph’s helmet at him during an on-field scuffle on Nov. 14.

Below is the video of the fans engaging in the activity at a tailgate, as published by Cleveland.com’s Twitter account:

Garrett was suspended indefinitely by the NFL and will miss the remainder of the 2019 season. Rudolph was fined $50,000 for his role in the altercation.

The Browns are 4-6 this season.

Clearly the fans in Cleveland are trying to make the best of a bad situation. It probably won’t go over too well with the fans in Pittsburgh.
