Thread: You're a Packers fan, son. Got it?

PORTAGE, Wis. - Upset that his 7-year-old son wouldn't wear a Green Bay Packers jersey during the team's playoff victory Saturday, a man restrained the boy for an hour with tape and taped the jersey onto him.

Mathew Kowald was cited for disorderly conduct in connection with the incident with his son at their home in Pardeeville, Lt. Wayne Smith of the Columbia County Sheriff's Department said. Pardeeville is about 30 miles north of Madison.

The 36-year-old Kowald was arrested Monday after his wife told authorities about the incident. Kowald was taken to the county jail and held until Wednesday, when he pleaded no contest, paid a fine of $186 and was released.

Kowald's wife filed a restraining order Wednesday, so Kowald will not be able to have contact with his family, Smith said. Smith said other domestic issues have surfaced, though he wouldn't elaborate.

The boy refused to wear the jersey Saturday, when the Packers beat the Seattle Seahawks in a playoff game, Smith said. Smith said the incident sounded strange when reported at first, but the mother took pictures with her cell phone and that type of evidence is difficult to dispute.

Some people don't deserve the honor of raising a child.. he fits that bill.

Smart boy, someone should get his address and mail him some Vikings gear

Just another sad example of a packer fan.
:'(

Seriously, this goes beyond fandom.
Some people shouldn't have a right to have children.

I just heard about this story on the news and logged on here. I'm speechless.

He said that they were having fun at first then it got serious. At what point did he realized he should have stopped? This is insane.

thats just horrible...i don't know what to say, but how could you do that...some sick stuff there...

It could've been worse, kiddo.

Oh, and since when is it illegal to duct tape you kid?

BTW, Miss Wisconsin approves of dad's tactics.

Furthermore, The only thing Packer fans should be forced to wear is deodorant.
