Lambeau Field was the site of an international soccer match between FC Bayern Munich and Manchester City. Many Green Bay Packers players were in attendance, including Aaron Rodgers and AJ Dillon.
During the game, though, AJ Dillon was harassed by a police officer who was on the sidelines as extra security.

As can be seen in the video, Dillon was on the sidelines high-fiving fans and getting the crowd amped up. As Dillon prepares to do a Lambeau Leap, an officer grabs him by the back of shirt near his neck and pulls him backwards. After Dillon chats with him for a brief moment, the officer then shoves him away.
Dillon shook off the exchange and commenced with his leap into the stands.
Just by looking at the video, one could not have blamed Dillon if he had thrown a fit or reacted in any way against the officer. After all, Dillon is very recognizable and obviously was not doing anything wrong. While initially questioning Dillon may be understandable, the extra shove seems wholly unnecessary. Dillon, though, has taken the high road.
Two security told me and helped me come down to the field during the 30 minute rain delay, so I could do a lambeau leap and hype up the crowd… I’m assuming he missed them telling me to come down. https://t.co/fxbKKtfhUW
