MUST WATCH: An Actual Condor Gets Loose At ECHL Hockey Game

by Joe Levine | 11:48 am, February 10th, 2013

The Bakersfield Condors and Las Vegas Wranglers faced off for some exciting ECHL action this weekend, but not before an actual condor was brought onto the ice for the singing of our National Anthem. Inevitably, the condor got loose and mayhem ensued.

It’s moments like these where you have to be thankful that video exists, because words simply cannot do what happened proper justice. Watch now as the condor escapes its handler’s grasp, scoots across the ice, and actually escapes down the tunnel to the locker rooms without anyone able to, well, wrangle it.

Kudos to the announcers of this game for not being uptight and actually recognizing how hilarious this was. I can only imagine that this moment would have been described as some degree of disgraceful if it was called by the likes of, say, Tim McCarver.

Throwing up on you is not the only thing a scared condor can do to you. With a beak made to rip open leather there that is more of a concern with a terrified bird. Training to not make it scared with approximations and generalizations so that it feels comfortable going into many different situations would have made a difference . Even science has shown bacteria learn by operant conditioning . Poor Andean condor.

Ben Golliver RT @RobMahoney: On the many complications of defending the Heat in crunch time & the high-volume criticism of Vogel: http://t.co/exb4YFq5XI

Ethan Strauss Paul George. I prefer watching Curry, but, ankles. RT @NBAdoug which young player do you want going forward, Paul Goerge or Steph Curry

Ethan Strauss Lotta this Vogel blame is just Paul George love. Which is fine, I love PG enough to wish blame on others, too.

Ethan Strauss Hibbert's rebounding doesn't matter on that possession. It made more sense to have him in on the LeBron layup with 11 seconds left.

Zach Harper @SherwoodStrauss @tomhaberstroh oh well if it's hard to do...
