Mother covers child’s eyes during Tom Wilson/Robert Bortuzzo fight

In the second period of the Caps’ 5-2 loss to the Blues, Tom Wilson and Robert Bortuzzo fought to settle past scores from the 2018 preseason. Their bout, coincidentally, ended up being in front of what appears to be two different families sitting along the glass.

They had very different reactions to the fight.

He was very excited.

Meanwhile, a parent sitting a few seats down, let’s call her Awesome Responsible Mom, covers her son’s eyes.

Let’s all agree though, that regardless of which parent you think is Doing Things Right, we were all this baby during the fight.
