Some Runner Celebrated His Victory At The European Athletic Championships By Shoving A 14-Year-Old Mascot Girl

by Dylan Murphy | 3:00 pm, July 1st, 2012

The European Athletic Championships finished up in Helsinki today, and Mahiedine Mekhissi-Benabbad won the gold medal in the 3000 meter steeplechase. His celebration, however, quickly devolved from jubilation to, well, assault, as he knocked away a gift from some mascot and then proceeded to shove the mascot itself. Oh yeah, one more thing: the person inside the mascot was a 14-year-old girl.

We’re not sure what sparked this seemingly random burst of rage – receiving gifts is usually delightful. Maybe those eyes were just a little too piercing…

That athlete is an absolute disgrace and should be banned from taking part in any major events for the next 5 years.
