A video making national news shows what appears to be former NFL coaches Rex Ryan, who was fired in December as head coach of the Buffalo Bills, and his twin brother Rob Ryan, a long time defensive coordinator in the league who was fired along with his brother by the Bills, getting into a fight with another patron at a downtown Nashville restaurant on Sunday, Fox 17 News reports.
The video was taken at Margaritaville by a couple visiting for the CMA Fest, which starts Thursday. The scuffle happened after the patron allegedly threw a margarita at Rex Ryan’s face.
The Tennessee Star contacted Margaritaville and was told the restaurant has no comment. The Metro Nashville Police Department does not have an incident report on the scuffle.
Bleacher Report, citing the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, said the Ryan brothers were interacting with fans at Margaritaville earlier in the day and were in town to celebrate the Predators being in the Stanley Cup Final.
“On Saturday, the Ryans took part in pregame festivities ahead of the Nashville Predators’ Game 3 victory over the Pittsburgh Penguins in the 2017 Stanley Cup Final,” Bleacher Report said. “NHL on NBC posted a video of Rex smashing a Penguin-themed car outside Bridgestone Arena.”
