Penguins fan gets tased, fights cop (Video)
A Pittsburgh Penguins fan had a bit too much fun during Game 2, as he got rowdy with a cop and got tased.
It’s been proven Pittsburgh Penguins fans are absolutely nuts. They’re willing to do just about anything to watch their favorite hockey team play. Game 2 saw them win 1-0 over the Ottawa Senators to tie the Eastern Conference Finals at one game apiece. It appears a fan had a bit too much fun during Monday’s game. The fan in question gets tased and confronts a cop during the game.
In this case, the cop has every right to tase the guy. He’s very confrontational, asks the cop if he’s “a tough guy” and refuses to cooperate. It’s clear this fan had a bit too much alcohol to drink. But hey, at least the Pens won 1-0. So maybe his night in jail was worth it. The Pittsburgh fans sure seem to be happy he got escorted away from the crowd.
It’s hilarious that the fans taunt him and root for him to get tased. You know you’re in a bad place when everyone around you wants you to suffer.
Luckily, Phil Kessel kept more shenanigans from happening by scoring the lone goal of the game in the third period. Pittsburgh’s 1-0 win keeps the team from suffering a 2-0 deficit. With the series tied at one game a piece, the Penguins now must go to Ottawa for the next two games.

Marc-Andre Fleury got a shutout, his second in his last three games. He’s been phenomenal in net for Pittsburgh after replacing Matt Murray. The rookie goalie got injured before Game 1 of their first round series against the Columbus Blue Jackets. However, Fleury has been building his legacy with a strong postseason run. A third Stanley cup would cap off a heck of a career in Pittsburgh.
