Killer hawk attacks wrong ARod
Tuesday 8 April 2008

A red tail hawk that had been trained to kill ARod on Friday accidentally jumped the gun and attacked a 13 year-old girl who was visiting Fenway Park on a school trip. The girls name? “Alexa Rodriguez” or as her friends call her “ARod”. The attack, which occurred a week before the New York Yankees were to take the field against Boston, caused the girl to be taken by ambulance to a nearby hospital as reported by the Boston Globe. I don’t really think I can blame the hawk for mistaking a purse-carrying teeny bopper in a Jonas Brothers hoodie for the Real McCoy.
Side note: Other animals that have been trained to attack incoming players include Bevo IV of Texas, Thunderbug of Tampa Bay, and C.C. Sabathia of Cleveland.
