Disturbing videos show security punching and tackling University of Houston fans as they storm the field

via Youtube

The University of Houston beat Temple on Saturday, 24-13, to capture its first AAC Championship. The real story of the game, however, came when Houston fans tried to storm the field in celebration and were aggressively tackled, punched, and body-slammed by stadium security. 

Numerous videos show fans trying to rush onto the field, as is typical when a team wins a big game. But the security guards, from Contemporary Service Corporation, tried to not let anyone pass and appeared to resort to some over-the-top aggression.

The whole situation looked pretty ugly, until eventually too many people started flooding the field for the guards to do anything.
