Auckland bar’s social media explosion on “league scum”

HeadQuarters Viaduct has launched a scathing online attack on an improper league fan who attended their Auckland bar to watch Wednesday night's Origin opener.

The fan reportedly damaged the bar's TV screen, and was "some clown that ruined it for the majority", according to Facebook user Tim Gregory who also attended the bar on Wednesday night.

Here is the post, which has been shared across a range of social media platforms, appearing on the HeadQuarters Viaduct Facebook page.

"We've had a year of great rugby, the Lions tour for example, plus cricket and racing etc ... and no problems, then the league scum drift in and try to wreck the place," the bar added in the post's comments.

The extent of the damage is unclear, but it received a mixed bag of responses from Facebook users who were present at the bar during the game.

"I've made my decision, never again you losers, you behave like animals and I'll treat you exactly like that, with pleasure. Apologies to those who love that game and behave, but I'm not having my precious asset put at risk again," the bar added.
