Video shows fight break out among spectators at USC football game
USC beach volleyball players, including Latvia's Līva Ēbere, witnessed a fight among spectators at an NCAA football game in Los Angeles where the home team suffered its first loss of the season.
Players from the University of Southern California (USC) beach volleyball team, including Latvian athlete Līva Ēbere, attended an NCAA college football game on Saturday evening. The match took place at the historic Memorial Coliseum in Los Angeles, the home stadium of the USC football team.
The outcome was unfavorable for the home side — in the early hours of Sunday, USC's football team suffered a 27:41 defeat to Oregon, marking the program's first loss of the season.
Altercation in the stands
Attention was also drawn to events off the field, as a fight broke out among local spectators at one point during the game. The incident was witnessed by the USC beach volleyball players who were present at the match. Footage of the altercation was captured and shared on social media by the account "Frontline TV," which posted the video on the platform X (formerly Twitter) on September 27.
No further details about the cause of the fight, those involved, or any consequences have been made public. The story has drawn attention largely because Latvia's beach volleyball player Līva Ēbere, who studies and competes for the USC university team in the United States, was among the spectators present. She and her teammates attended the game as spectators and were not involved in the incident itself.
The episode is being noted in connection with the 2026 beach volleyball season, in which Ēbere represents USC.
