Clark the bald eagle does whathe wants whenhe wants, and after the national anthem performance at the Cotton Bowl, he wanted to fly into the stands.
Before the Clemson Tigers played Notre Dame in Arlington, Texas on Saturday, Clark was supposed to fly around the stadium, high above people's heads. But instead, he went rogue and decided to perch on two unsuspecting fans.

Videos shared on social media show the stadium abuzz as Clark drops in on two Notre Dame fans at AT&T Stadium.
The first man, 42-year-old Albert Armas, chose to remain very still while the eagle perched on his shoulder, later explaining to Sports Illustratedthat he was "scared crapless." Understandable!
But the second man, Tuyen Nguyen, had some time to prepare so he decided to hold his arm out like a straight-up professional bird handler and really enjoy their time together.

Though no one was injured in the rogue eagle flight, Nguyen still had goosebumps later in the day.

"When I saw the bird land [on Armas], I thought, the bird had to be very tired. So I put my hand out to see what happens. And it landed on me. It was very interesting. I was very excited. It was amazing. I couldn’t even believe it," he told Sports Illustrated.
And though Clark's visit to the Cotton Bowl didn't go as planned, everyone still loves him.

A happy ending and another exciting football game in the books.
