hitlerThe despicable image made a surprise appearance at a Michigan State University football game … and unsurprisingly, the reaction was one of collective disgust, prompting the university to issue a mea culpa.
The Nazi leader’s ugly mug appeared on a huge video board overlooking Spartan Stadium Saturday night … right before the MSU Spartans kicked off their game against the Michigan Wolverines.
The big screen displayed not only the Fuhrer’s photo, but also a trivia question about his birthplace in Austria.
Of course, the crap didn’t sit well with a lot of people in the middle of the war between Israel and Hamas, so they took pictures of Hitler’s cameo and posted them on social media.
MSU officials were quick to apologize, while blaming the fiasco on a “third-party source.”
In a statement, MSU’s associate athletic director Matt Larson said, “MSU is aware that inappropriate content from a third-party source was displayed on the video board prior to the start of tonight’s football game.”
Larson continued, “We deeply regret the content that was displayed, as it is not representative of our institutional values.”
It also promised that it would never use the third-party source again, while implementing “stronger vetting and approval procedures for all graphics card content going forward.”
To make matters worse, the Spartans were spanked 49-0 by the Wolverines.
