During the San Jose Sharks’ Hispanic Heritage Night game, an offensive message appeared on the arena’s video board. The post immediately caused outrage among fans, the message read, “SJ SHARKS FANS LOVE ICE!! GET’EM BOYZ!” Many interpreted it as a reference to Immigration and Customs Enforcement rather than the sport’s ice surface.
Team officials later apologized, explaining that the message had been submitted externally and mistakenly approved. They said the content did not represent the organization’s values and promised an internal review to prevent similar incidents in the future.
Translation...they got TROLLED and hard! They might need a better moderation person or AI to keep messages submitted from the general public from reaching the jumbotron. At least the shark mascot seemed happy while the message appeared.
