Japanese baseball fans keep it RAL

Here is a story out of Japan (that would probably be considered odd to us, but par for the course over there) where it seems that a few baseball fans disliked an opposing baseball teams player so much they took in out on a statue of a man who wanted nothing more then to make the world a fatter place.


"A statue of the KFC mascot has been found in a river in Osaka...nearly a quarter century after being tossed in by crazed baseball fans who felt the image of restaurant founder Harland Sanders resembled a key team member."


Now if you are anything like me, which I hope you aren't as the things you see when you close eyes will leave you sleepless for weeks, you pictured thousands of baseball fans fleeing a stadium after a big loss, looting, flipping cars and fighting police en route to the main square in Osaka to tear down the statue of the best player on the other team...only they found a smiling colonel Sanders statue and decided 'fuck it, he's white tear him down'....



We all look the same to them...just as they do to us


*The KFC chain currently operates about 1,160 restaurants in Japan, and has about 1,000 Colonel Sanders statues in the country. WTF?
