Its Philly. Kid probably threw a battery at Gritty to start it.

That is the look of a mascot that would carve your corpse and hide it in the trunk of his Corolla to be disposed of in front of the Rocky statue in broad daylight.

What were you expecting? A hug?

I'm surprised that "Come Get Punched by Gritty" wasn't the actual promotion.

This has cash grab written all over it. Mascot probably pretended to punch the kid living up to character and the dad saw dollar signs. This is what our society has become.

If past Philly antics are any indication, Gritty will be arrested for assault and batteries.

Gritty's response to all of this: "I only punched him in the back because he turned at the last second. I tried to punch the little #*$& in the face!"

The kid didn't doing anything wrong, but there is no reason why he still shouldn't have to answer the bell.
