CLEVELAND– While the Browns were busy winning their first game in nearly two years, there was another show happening in the stands of FirstEnergy Stadium.
During Thursday Night Football, a fan caught an opossum and helped security contained the critter. Video shows the Browns fan holding the opossum by the tail and putting it into a cardboard box.

FOX 8 News checked with the Cleveland Browns to see what happened to the animal after its capture. A team spokesman said the opossum was humanely released outside of the stadium.
Because this is 2018 and it’s a wonderful time to be alive, the marsupial already has a Twitter account and T-shirts.
That box was surprisingly spacious. Never been better #HandledWithCare
