Gritty Accused of Punching 13 Year Old (UPD: No Criminal Charges to be Pursued)

[googlymoogly]

This makes me like Gritty even more than before, which I didn't know was possible.

If I caught Gritty in bed with my wife, I'd knock her off the bed and stay with Gritty.

Tell her to stop shaving and she'll be gritty in no time.

 

[Hasbro]

there are atleast 15 replies saying that all 13 year olds deserve to be punched... really guys? sorry you got bullied as a kid but enough with the wishes for child violence

You do realize the kid is a Flyers’s fan?

 

[NeverForget06]

Our many suspicions are confirmed. That kid better hope Gritty doesn't lawyer up and go after him for defamation!

 

[Il Stugotz]

Gritty has gone soft. I liked Gritty better when I thought he hit kids.

 

[Bedards Dad]

I'm a bit disappointed. The Legend of Gritty just took a major hit.

 

[johnpaulws]

somebody trying to make a fast buck over nonsense,

more kids need a good smack these days.....go gritty!!

 

[TheGoldenGod]

That kid has the sort of face that is begging to be dented.

Massive props to Gritty for restraining himself.

Gritty needs to punch something fluffy to get his image back .

 

[StoneHands]

That dad sucks.

 

[JoVel]

I wish he was guilty. Kids are annoying.

 

[tarheelhockey]

Of course the cops would say that... nobody wants Gritty coming after them next.

 

[Primary Assist]

Philly PR better be ready to spin this devastating outcome. This whole time Gritty's been a....... pacifist?

Massive props to Gritty for restraining himself. That kid has the sort of face that is begging to be dented.

The article I read said the kid admitted to tapping Gritty in the head. I can only guess the kid was trying to be a smart ass and looking for a reaction.

Then his father wanting perks from the organization...

 

[These Are The Days]

I don't condone that sort of stuff but that kid has the sort of face that is begging to be dented.

For all we know he's a Tkachuk. With a mug like that how is anyone sure he isn't

 

[Crabapple]

Gritty did not hit that kiddie

 

[SotasicA]

Leave Gritty alone

 

[CupInSIX]

I'm a bit disappointed. The Legend of Gritty just took a major hit.

It's still real to me, dammit.

 

[Shocker]

Gritty hit the cops so they're scared now.

[Conbon]

I'd like to see Gritty make a WWE appearance

So does the father. I'd be lying if I said I didn't give my screen a little punch.

I’m guessing the police weren’t impressed by the fact that the dad established that his son had a spinal contusion by... waiting a week to take the kid to a chiropractor for a diagnosis.

 

[Cancuks]

Is this some sort of ridiculous publicity stunt? Why would they even name the mascot rather than the person wearing the costume?

Costume?

 

[Section337]

?

Costume?

Yeah, you don't think Gritty walks around in his daily life wearing a Flyers jersey, hockey pants and helmet?
