Atlanta Braves mascot Blooper is back at it again.
He showcased an incredible stiff arm that would have made Derrick Henry proud. Blooper has been known to not show any regard for children in these games. He did something similar last year.
The game took place during halftime of the L.A. Chargers-Minnesota Vikings game on Sunday.
Blooper’s stiff arm sent the child flying through the air and it took multiple players to force him out of bounds. The mascot spiked the ball into the ground after to celebrate.
Have not seen a stiff arm this strong since Derrick Henry ?? When @BlooperBraves gets the football, GET OUT OF THE WAY.@Braves | @MLBONFOX pic.twitter.com/Filn7Tpkix

Kirk Cousins and the Vikings may not have been motivated by the stiff arm. Minnesota ended up losing to the Chargers 28-24 after Cousins threw a pick in the redzone.
In a battle of 0-2 teams the Vikings left 0-3. It wasn’t for a lack of trying, however.
Cousins finished the game with 367 yards passing and 3 touchdowns. Justin Jefferson ended up with 149 yards receiving and 1 touchdown.
Hopefully the mascot game continues each year.
