In a stunning turn of events, a shipment carrying the Pittsburgh Penguins’ legend Jaromir Jagr‘s bobbleheads were stolen. This took place while they were enroute to Pittsburgh which were supposed to be distributed to the fans who were attending the game. While the investigation is going on, one person in the form of NHL mascot Gritty has come forward and jokingly admitted to be part of it.

The Philadelphia Flyers’ mascot has been notorious to be involved in several mischiefs. Recently, he somehow got his hands on the WWE Golden Title of Snoop Dogg, whom he later challenged.
