Very much like my idol Wendy Williams, I don’t relate to sports unless it somehow invades my life via hot topics or hilarity. This is the latter.

Hilariously, the New York Mets mascot gives a heckling fan the finger during a Wednesday night baseball game. I had to make sure I was getting the right sport, but this is definitely baseball.

The Mets released a statement on Twitter…

…Which led to the mascot officially getting the boot!

According to ESPN:

“A Mets official told The Associated Press more than one person wears the Mr. Met costume during each season, and the person who wore it Wednesday night will not work in the costume again.”

Isn’t this what sports are all about?! I can’t believe they fired this person!
