Moments after the Green Bay Packers knocked off the Dallas Cowboys at  AT&T Stadium on Sunday,  
video shows a Cowboys fan attacking a Green Bay fan. The violent fight was posted to Twitter.
 
Police in Texas made several arrests at the stadium following the fight, and in the end, a few Dallas fans helped the Packers fan to his feet.
 
"You have to keep it in perspective," said Brad Riemann, a Physiologist at Rogers Memorial Hospital in Oconomowoc. "Only one team wins the last game. 31 teams across the country are always going to be disappointed and sad at some point." 
He has studied winning, and what winning and losing can mean for fans. 
 
"It's human nature you want to be associated with winners," Riemann said. "You can go back a few months ago, you didn't see a lot of green and gold going around."
 
Packers fans have experienced the the thrill of victory and the agony of defeat this season.   
"When they were four and six, you heard a lot of they lost, they blew it," said said Riemann. "They're not going anywhere. Now your hearing, we won. We can do it. We can win the Super Bowl."
 
Right now, Packer pride is in high gear as the team heads to the NFC Championship game. 
 
"Enjoy it, but keep it in perspective. Win, lose or draw -  the world keeps spinning and you still have to go to work oro  school the next day and take the test," said Riemann.
