So there are eight minutes left in the Oilers-Caps game, and we’re just watching stuff go all wobbly on the ice. Alzner, Green, and Ovechkin started mixing it up with Luke Gazdic and Mike Brown. Then, Adam Oates gets furious and the Caps pull off the win.

But in the mayhem, we missed something. Something awful. Something nearly unknowable.

Gaze with us into the abyss for a moment.

You missed it, didn’t you? Take a look at that photo above again. Peep at the crowd.

See it? Here, I’ll help.

Computer: enhance quadrant J-5 mark 23!

Again. Enhance area 4-x-2 to delta-Kropog zed!

MOTHER. OF. GOD.

It seems we’ve got a guy wearing an Eagle mask at Caps games now. It’s like Washington’s hockey version of the horse mask.

Get your own eagle mask! Express yourself at Verizon Center with diminished vision!

Stay weird, DC. We love you.
