Bullying can be found in all sports, at all levels. While it’s an issue that many people are trying to clean up today, what we need to realize is that it’s just the nature of the game and a part of life.
But at the University of Oregon, the bullying is reaching new heights. Members of the football team were seen on the street having a snowball fight when things got out of hand.
Players and students began hurling snow at cars trying to pass as a mob soon formed and left drivers with nowhere to go. One man was brave enough to leave his vehicle in hopes that the barrage would stop, when one student dumped a tub of snow on him as soon as he got out. Not going to lie, pretty hilarious.
But when you’re a kid getting a scholarship to play ball at a school like Oregon, then maybe it’s in your best interests not to do things like this. The man who was driving ended up being a professor, and as you would guess, the school is now doing an investigation on the matter.
It doesn’t always snow in Eugene, Oregon, but when it does, the students turn up. Let’s hope they can still play in their bowl game after this.
