A Philadelphia man claims his 13-year-old son was assaulted by Flyers mascot Gritty during a photo shoot. The alleged incident happened during a November photo shoot with fans at the Wells Fargo Center. The father, Chris Greenwell, says his son "harmlessly" tapped Gritty on the head after the photo was taken. Greenwell says Gritty then "took a running start" and punched the teen in the back. After the Flyers said there was "nothing to support this claim", Greenwell contacted police, who are investigating the allegations. Do you think Greenwell's story is true? Ever see a mascot misbehave in public?
