After Taylor Fritz’s girlfriend Morgan Riddle opened up about the “scary” harassment she endured from “drunk, rude, gross” fans at the Super Bowl, dozens of users took to social media to share their support—and their own stories.
The influencer was in Las Vegas on Sunday watching the Kansas City Chiefs defeat the San Francisco 49ers 25-22 in overtime. But during what should have been a fun and exciting weekend of parties, tailgates and football, Riddle says she and her friends were subjected to unbelievable “levels of harassment” instead.
“Wasn’t going to post about this but I actually think it’s important to,” Riddle wrote in the first of a series of Instagram Stories over the weekend. “I can’t believe the levels of harassment we dealt with this weekend from men. In the last 3 days, I’ve been grabbed, groped, harassed, cat-called incessantly—basically every few minutes when we were out in public.
“And it was really bad at the game today. We couldn’t enjoy the game without getting bothered by drunk, rude, gross male fans. It’s extremely stressful and scary.”
