Soccer Mom in Norway Attacks Player, Strangles Ref

The disease known as soccer parents going off the deep end continues to spread, this time infecting a small town in Norway. While watching a game involving 13-year-old girls, a soccer mom took objection to the play of one of the players and decided to take matters into her own hands.

From Aftenposten

“A female parent from the visiting team came running onto the pitch and attacked a 13-year-old. She pushed the 13-year-old onto the ground, so the girl was lying on her back,” Tor Eriksen of the Bardufoss regional sports association (BOIF) told NRK (Norwegian Broadcasting).

The BOIF girls were called a range of nasty names, and were also told to “get their ugly asses off the field”, NRK reports.

The excitable mother from Tromsø was not content with insults and flinging a girl to the ground, she then took a stranglehold on the referee and had to be restrained by BOIF leaders.

Now that is parenting! And to think my mother only showed support for my team by bringing orange slices for halftime.
