It didn’t take long for internet detectives to identify the so-called Milwaukee Brewers “Karen”, who has gone viral for a racist incident at the NLCS against the Los Angeles Dodgers.
During one of the NLCS games at American Family Field (the exact game is unclear), a Los Angeles Dodgers supporter filmed a disturbing confrontation he experienced with a Milwaukee Brewers fan.

There’s also a good chance that Kobylarczyk will be permanently banned from attending all Brewers home games.
