The Minnesota Golden Gophers greatly helped their tournament chances on Tuesday night, with a thrilling 4-point victory over conference rival Purdue. However, as Minnesota fans stormed the floor, one Gopher fan greatly helped his chances of getting knocked out as he gave a Purdue player the double-bird.
In the moments following the final buzzer, a Minnesota fan taunted Purdue’s Matt Haarms, by giving him the middle finger on both hands. Haarms then shoved the fan and a referee had to intervene.
Several fans took to Twitter to blast the fan for taunting Haaarms.
“The Boilermakers, who had their five-game winning streak broken and lost for only the second time in their last 15 games, fell into a three-way tie for first place in the conference with Michigan and Michigan State,” according to the Detroit Free Press.
