A Cleveland area teen was kicked out of a rec soccer league for a lengthy — and often hilarious — list of violations.
Brian Garruto, a senior at Westlake High, received an email from a league official of the North Side Co Ed Soccer League explaining the reason for his ban in great detail. He was a member of the Cleveland Steamers.
The email went viral Friday night when it was spotted by GQ as noted by our colleagues at For The Win.
Apparently, the breaking point came Jan. 31, when he gave birth to a soccer ball on the field after a goal, altered the scoreboard, and wore a Natural Light beer shirt as his uniform. Among the other offenses, changing his jersey after he got a red card and entering the game by pretending to by another player, running into the goal while hiding the ball in his shirt and eating a banana on the field.
Garruto also played high school soccer for Westlake as noted by this photo. Westlake finished 15-2-3 last fall and was ranked among the top 10 teams in Ohio.
No points for sportsmanship, but give him credit for creativity.
