Former President Donald Trump went from serving French fries at a McDonald’s on Sunday afternoon to being served high praise by fans that evening at the NFL game between the Pittsburgh Steelers and New York Jets.
When the crowd noticed Trump at the game, chants of “USA” erupted, with one fan going the extra distance… literally.
Here is what FOX Sports reported on the story:
One woman really wanted to impress former President Donald Trump on Sunday night.
The former president, and current Republican nominee, attended Sunday night’s NFL game between the Pittsburgh Steelers and New York Jets after campaigning in Pennsylvania throughout the weekend.
When he was spotted at the game, chants of “USA” rang through the crowd, but one fan took it the extra mile.

Toward the end of the game, a woman ran onto the field with a sign that said “Trump secure border, Harris open border.”
SportsNet New York said that the woman was “taken off the field” and yet another “USA” chant rang out.
The three-time nominee held a rally in nearby Latrobe, the home of Arnold Palmer, on Saturday, when he was joined by former Steelers stars Antonio Brown and Le’Veon Bell. The duo also attended the game with him in a suite.
Brown tossed “Trump/Vance” towels to crowds on Sunday, reminiscent of the notable “Terrible Towels” in Pittsburgh.The Steelers dominated the Jets, 37-15, despite Gang Green going out and getting Aaron Rodgers’ favorite wide receiver, Davante Adams. The Steelers defense held Adams to just three catches for 30 yards in his Jets debut. It was his and Rodgers’ first game together since the 2021 season.The game also marked Russell Wilson’s Steelers debut after Justin Fields was 4-2 to begin the season.
