Attention Dallas Cowboys fans: It might be a good idea to stay away from the City of Brotherly Love for a while until Eagles fans come to terms with last weekend’s playoff loss.

A die-hard Cowboys fan sporting a Tony Romo jersey said she was attacked by two men wearing Eagles jerseys while walking down a street in Bethlehem, Pa., on Friday. She claims one of the fans yelled ‘Hey Romo’ before striking her in the face.

Of course, she sort of got the last laugh -- the Cowboys beat the Eagles, 34-14, on Saturday. Check out the video:

Hopefully, the police will catch whoever was responsible for the attack. In the meantime, this Cowboys fan should keep her distance from anyone wearing Vikings horns or a big No. 4 on their back.
