After the Baltimore Ravens beat the Minnesota Vikings in a wild finish to the game, running back Adrian Peterson took some shots at the fans. Mainly, Peterson was upset with Ravens fans for throwing snowballs.
“They’ve got the worst fans in the NFL. [They were] throwing snowballs the entire fourth quarter, like kids,” Peterson told the media.

Ravens head coach John Harbaugh had a response for Peterson when asked about the comments on Monday.
“Who doesn’t throw snowballs when it snows?” Harbaugh said with a chuckle, via the team’s website. “Maybe in Minnesota because they’re so used to snow, maybe that’s gotten old for them.”
Harbaugh also defended the Ravens fan base.
“What do you want me to say?” Harbaugh said. “We have the best fans in the NFL, I can tell you that.”
