Prescient, Temperamental Steelers Fan Kicks Puppy to Death Before Loss to Chiefs

I can understand how losing to the Kansas City Chiefs in overtime might be cause for wanting to do bodily harm to living things for the more violent Steeler fans in the tribe. But one fan was apparently angry enough to do worse even before that debacle.↵↵⇥William Woodson, 22, is being held on $25,000 bail in the Allegheny County Jail, pending a preliminary hearing on animal cruelty at 1 p.m. next Monday before District Judge Elaine McGraw in Bridgeville.⇥⇥↵⇥↵⇥The puppy, a 13-week-old pit bull named Flip, had been the focal point of recent arguments between Mr. Woodson and his girlfriend.⇥⇥↵⇥

↵⇥↵⇥...⇥⇥↵⇥

↵⇥↵⇥“He admitted the dog would not behave prior to the Steelers game and that he became upset at it,” according to the affidavit.⇥⇥↵⇥

↵↵↵Look, I want to watch football games in peace as much as the next guy, but this is beyond extreme. And if this man got this mad before that frustrating loss, I shudder to think of what he violence he was willing to unload on another living thing afterward.↵
