A video shared online shows Houston businessman Jim 'Mattress Mack' McIngvale cursing out a Philadelphia Phillies fan after the team's 7-0 win against the Houston Astros in Game 3 of the World Series at Citizens Bank Park on Tuesday (November 1) night.

McIngvale, 71, who placed a $10 million futures bet on the hometown Astros to win the World Series earlier this year, was shown repeatedly yelling "f*** you" while being held back by two people.

On Wednesday (November 2) morning, McIngvale tweeted, "Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good. Romans 12:21," seemingly in response to the incident going viral.

(WARNING: The video below contains cursing).

The now-viral video came hours after McIngvale praised the notorious Philly sports fans for their hospitality, sharing multiple videos of himself signing autographs for Phillies fans.

"The City of Brotherly Love has really earned its name. I’m overwhelmed with how welcoming this city has been. Bless you, Philadelphia, PA, but my beloved @astros are still going to win tonight," McIngvale tweeted prior to Monday night's loss.

"Now I know why they call it the City of Brotherly Love," McIngvale tweeted in a separate post showing his interaction with opposing fans. "These @Phillies fans couldn’t be nicer. Our @astros are still going to win tonight!"

The Phillies defeated the Astros, 7-0, tying a World Series single-game record with five home runs hit on Tuesday night, all of which came off Houston starting pitcher Lance McCullers Jr., which was also a record for most allowed by one pitcher in a World Series game.

Philadelphia currently leads the series 2-1 heading into Game 4 on Wednesday (November 2) night.
