Barstool Sports founder Dave Portnoy, who was kicked out of the Super Bowl’s Opening Night for gaining entrance with fake credentials and told not to show up to the Super Bowl, was carried out of his seat during halftime of the Super Bowl by NFL security. The entire arrest was caught on camera.

Portnoy was kept in the stadium’s jail until the end of the game and released. The NFL wasn’t finished with him. They later tried and failed to kick him out of the Patriots Super Bowl party.
The amount of effort the NFL put into tracking Portnoy down and carrying him out of the Super Bowl is ridiculous. If the NFL would put this type of effort into investigating domestic violence accusations against their players, they would never have to rely on TMZ to release video of the incidents.
