Chuang denies the Washington Commanders football stadium its motion to compel arbitration and dismiss negligence allegations brought by a group of Philadelphia Eagles fans who were injured at a game. After the game, the group went to an area in hopes of meeting some of the Eagles players. Stadium staff allowed them into an area, and while the group waited, they all fell after a railing they were leaning on gave way. The staff helped them up after they each fell five to ten feet onto a hard surface but failed to treat them further, telling them to "get the fuck out of the stadium." The group returned home and presently continue to receive medical treatment for their injuries. Although the NFL promised to investigate the incident, it nor any other parties have done so. Those parties argue that one of the group member's cousin was their "ticket agent" and therefore subject to arbitration, but they have not met their burden to prove this.
