A.J. Dillon clarifies strange Lambeau Leap situation with police officer at Man City-Bayern Munich match

Saturday night at Lambeau Field saw Manchester City and Bayern Munich go toe-to-toe in a stunning exhibition. But while Erling Haaland, Sadio Mané, and Co. had a ton of fun on the makeshift pitch in Green Bay, a minor kerfuffle developed on the sidelines.

During the match, Packers running back A.J. Dillon tried to get fans in attendance hyped up with the classic “Lambeau Leap” — just as we see in many Packers games. However, before Dillon’s initial jump, a Green Bay police officer stopped him in what appeared to be a somewhat tense situation.

A whole host of theories developed over Twitter. Did the officer not recognize Dillon? Did he think Dillon didn’t have the credentials to go onto the field?

Eventually, the Packers’ back did get to leap into the stands. And on Sunday, he clarified what might have happened during the commotion:

Ah, okay. That makes sense. Not all of the security on the field is necessarily communicating with each other at any given moment. So, it’s entirely possible that this officer missed Dillon getting an escort onto the field before their weird argument.

Even still: Dillon plays for the Packers! Honestly, he probably should have a lifetime pass to perform a Lambeau Leap at the stadium whenever he wants.
