SOUTH LOOP — Two men were hospitalized after being stabbed during a brawl Thursday night at Soldier Field after the Bears-Cowboys games, police said.

At 10:45 p.m., a fight broke out in a parking lot in the 400 block of East 18th Drive, said Officer Jose Estrada, a Chicago police spokesman.

According to the Tribune, the fight broke out after four men started yelling, "Bears suck."

A 21-year-old man and a 22-year-old man suffered cuts on their backs during a verbal and physical fight with four unidentified men. One of men used an unknown object to stab the two men, Estrada said.

The two victims were both taken to Northwestern Hospital and treated for non-life threatening injuries, Estrada said.

Police said alcohol is believed to have been a factor in the incident.

No one is in custody and the investigation is ongoing.
