Via Larry Brown Sports:
Over the years, we have seen plenty of strange happenings when it comes to mascots. There have been arrests for incidents involving snowball throwing, Bar-Mitzvahs, dance-offs, nut shots, and much more. We’ve even seen a few scuffles involving mascots and fans, but I don’t remember any of them resulting in blood gushing from someone’s nose. On Wednesday night, Mister C changed all that during a game between Vanderbilt and Tennessee. Take a look at the Vanderbilt mascot fan punch video, courtesy of Barstool U:
If I was that kid I would have gone absolutely ape on the mascot. There’s something about mascots in those big, bulky costumes that just makes you want to pummel them anyway, no? That fan was presented with an opportunity. If he beat the mascot down, no one would have blamed him. Instead, he grabbed a newspaper and let him off the hook. Unless, of course, he’s already plotting his attack for the next game.

I don't get it... I've never been tempted to hit a mascot; just a person doing his or her job, what's your problem, journalist?

I wish that were a Duke fan. Just kidding.
