Kelly Stafford has banned herself from attending Rams road games, explains pretzel-throwing drama​

Kelly Stafford says she was owning her mistake​

By Joe Kinsey | OutKick




Kelly Stafford, wife of Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford, finds herself in a pickle because of a pretzel. You still with me? Earlier this month a Rams road loss at the hands of the 49ers had Mrs. Stafford feeling salty, causing her to make like her husband and throw a dart. The only difference: Kelly was tossing a pretzel instead of pigskin and unlike her husband that night, she hit her intended target.

On Tuesday’s edition of the "The Morning After" podcast, Kelly Stafford, the wife of Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford, announced she was self-imposing a Rams road game ban on herself after what transpired last week at Levi’s Stadium where she was escorted out of the Rams-49ers game after a pretzel-throwing incident.

Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford (9) throws during the first half of an NFL football game against the Indianapolis Colts, Sunday, Sept. 19, 2021, in Indianapolis.


Kelly says she was removed from the stadium just five minutes into the game when a fan started heckling and the QB’s wife launched a pretzel at the guy. It’s probably best she was kicked out. The Rams went on to get blown out 31-10.
"I guess I hit him right in the head," she explained on her aim with a piece of the pretzel she ripped off and launched behind her head. "Not an ideal response," Kelly added.
"I’m human, I make mistakes, and I own up to them, I don’t f—king hide from them, that’s not me."

It was in ROD-BOT’s feed…. I rejected a similar article, but this one is better written.

I don’t care for these sort of articles in general. So…Lets keep it onside. Stafford is our QB. Shit talking about him or her is like talking shit about yo mamma.

That’s the way I see it. Go Rams!

RE: Article - I would throw more than a pretzel… but that’s caveman me.

I'm surprised it didn't get picked off.

But, seriously, that's some embarrassing nonsense.

No big deal that I can see. If someone's wife threw a pretzel at me I'd probably offer her to come sit on my lap, I mean it would be kind of funny as long as it wasn't covered in mustard or something. But maybe she should be in a luxury box anyway.

Really guys?

Actually writing this article is basically getting in touch with your inner teenage girl.

Throwing a pretzel at a guy who's trashing your team and your husband? Yeah, I can see that.

Getting thrown out of the stadium? Kinda makes me wonder if there's more to the story.

Publicizing that you are "banning" yourself from attending road games because you're afraid of what you might say or do? Ok, now it's sounding a little weird.

Kelly herself said it best: "Being a professional athlete’s significant other, you don’t wave want to bring attention to yourself negatively."

She seems to really like the attention.

So she can't stand whiner fans and in fewer than 5 minutes around them feels uncontrollably compelled to launch the closest thing she can throw into their big stupid faces?

I have to say, that part really makes sense to me. Here I was thinking that Kelly Stafford and I had very different experiences... but she's my sister from another mister.

What's with this fanbases obsession with hating on our QBs wives and or girlfriends? Do all fans do this over and over or just us lol?

Wait wait wait.

Back up a second here.

Why are we saying 'mustard' on the pretzel? Is that really a thing?
