Criticism of people who commit physical assault against fans of opposing sports teams
Overview
This is a two-panel reaction meme using the popular Jim Halpert whiteboard presentation template from the US sitcom The Office. The first panel shows the character Jim Halpert pointing at a whiteboard that reads "If you are physically assaulting someone else for being a fan of a team you are against". The second panel shows the whiteboard with the follow-up blunt statement "You are a grade A bitch", as Jim looks at the viewer with a deadpan, self-assured expression. The meme criticizes the trend of violent altercations between rival sports fans, referencing that such incidents were previously reported during NBA games and have now emerged during the World Cup tournament.
