VINES: Newton superman celebration causes mass brawl between Panthers and Saints

Just one ejection for this mayhem

Well that escalated quickly.

It all kicked off in the first quarter of the NFC South clash between the Carolina Panthers and the New Orleans Saints.

Panthers quarterback Cam Newton dived over for a two-yard touchdown and pulled his famous Superman celebration out of the bag.

New Orleans linebacker Curtis Lofton thought that was very cheeky and he let Newton know all about it.

The pushing turned to a scuffle before turning into a full on brawl that led to the ejection of Carolina’s Brandon Williams.
