VIDEO: Bruins Fan Gets Silly Stringed, Attacks Giant Lightning Bug Mascot

On Tuesday night, there was a moment between a fan of the Boston Bruins and Thunderbug, the hilariously obnoxious mascot of the Tampa Bay Lightning. Here's a list of bad decisions made by that Bruins fan during that encounter:

  • Mouthing off to a giant cartoon.
  • Standing up, turning around and pushing over a guy in a mascot costume.
  • Trying to make the point that you're a real man by getting in the fake face of a fake lightning bug.
  • Turning around and yelling at the crowd while getting kicked out of a sporting event for assaulting a mascot.
  • Wearing a t-shirt with a Stanley Cup on it that's apparently made of aluminum foil.

Yes, there is video of this glorious episode.

Now we're not saying the Bruins fan here deserved to get sprayed in the face with silly string, but... well, you know what? Given his crazy reaction to some honestly harmless (if perhaps a bit over the top) taunting from a mascot at a hockey game, I think it's safe to assume he totally deserves the embarrassment.
