An Atlanta Falcons fan has been hospitalized after being stabbed after last night's home loss to the San Francisco 49ers. The attack followed an argument with a man and two women rooting for the 49ers, witnesses tell Fox 5. One of the three cut the throat of the victim, a 35-year-old man; he's reportedly in stable condition. It wasn't clear whether the fans had been at the game, but the incident took place in the parking lot outside the Georgia Dome. (More San Francisco 49ers stories.)
