Washington Capitals goaltender Braden Holtby has arrived at the Capital Pride Parade and he’s wearing a pretty amazing shirt.
Holtby showed off his white tee in a photo with Capitals PA announcer Wes Johnson.
The shirt reads:
VIOLENCE
HATRED
OPPRESSION
CRUELTY
PARANOIA
WAR
INTOLERANCE
BIGOTRY
FEAR
TERROR
PEACE
☮
That’s pretty powerful.
According to RMNB’s Elizabeth Kong, who’s at parade covering the event for us, Holtby slipped on a Capitals pride shirt overtop this white t-shirt shortly after he arrived.
