Watch: Georgia fan’s rambunctious celebration lands him in the hospital

This guy needed stitches in his arm after Georgia beat Mizzou.

If you needed more proof that football fans in the South take things a bit too seriously, here you go.

Georgia pulled off a dramatic win over Mizzou on the road this week, with Bulldogs quarterback Jacob Eason finding Isaiah McKenzie for the game-winning score on fourth down.

One Georgia fan was so hyped that his celebration landed him in the hospital.

Just a warning, things are about to get bloody.

The overzealous Dawgs fan is apparently a guy named Michael DiNardo. He got the injured bicep stitched up and confirmed that Georgia is still No. 1.

If Michael reacted like that to a game the Bulldogs were favored in, how will he react to a tougher matchup this week against Ole Miss?
