Dinger truck-sticked a kid during halftime of the Broncos preseason finale
Hopefully the trainer on the sideline took this kid through the concussion protocol.
Dinger might be beloved by little kids, but that doesn’t mean that he’s hesitant to hit them with a well-timed elbow to the dome from time to time.
During halftime of the Broncos preseason finale Thursday, a short game took place between local mascots and youth football players. Things got a little physical.
Dinger, the Colorado Rockies purple-dinosaur mascot, received a handoff 26 yards out and took it to the house for a touchdown. Along the way, some poor kid felt Dinger’s wrath.
