When dad and son don’t support the same team
A funny news I read today. A father taped the jersey of his favourite team onto his son who wouldn’t want to wear them, probably he didn’t like the team or just didn’t like the father. I will see if my Jordan will support Manchester Utd too, if not, I will confiscate all his toys and blackmail him haha. Kidding.
PORTAGE, Wis. - Upset that his 7-year-old son wouldn’t wear a Green Bay Packers jersey during the team’s playoff victory Saturday, a man restrained the boy for an hour with tape and taped the jersey onto him.
Mathew Kowald was cited for disorderly conduct in connection with the incident with his son at their home in Pardeeville, Lt. Wayne Smith of the Columbia County Sheriff’s Department said. Pardeeville is about 30 miles north of Madison.
The 36-year-old Kowald was arrested Monday after his wife told authorities about the incident. Kowald was taken to the county jail and held until Wednesday, when he pleaded no contest, paid a fine of $186 and was released.
Kowald’s wife filed a restraining order Wednesday, so Kowald will not be able to have contact with his family, Smith said. Smith said other domestic issues have surfaced, though he wouldn’t elaborate.
The boy refused to wear the jersey Saturday, when the Packers beat the Seattle Seahawks in a playoff game, Smith said. Smith said the incident sounded strange when reported at first, but the mother took pictures with her cell phone and that type of evidence is difficult to dispute.

So a Dad was arrested for taping a Green Bay Packers’ jersey to his 7 year old son, despite the kid’s protests.
What’s the problem?
It’s not like it was a Jets’ jersey.
That would be child abuse!
