Wikipedia Vandalism Hits Orr

Greg Wyshynski at Puck Daddy informs his readers of the latest hockey-related Wikipedia vandalism targeted at Colton Orr...

On the other hand, the current state (as of 1:40 p.m. EDT) of New York Rangers forward Colton Orr's Wikipedia page is a work of absurdist art; from his strange relationship with winger Patrick Rissmiller to this inside information:

"During games in which Orr makes himself a healthy scratch, he opts to sit in Rissmiller's locker room stall and chews tobacco, or what he calls 'long conversations with Scotty Skoal,' which he then finishes off by shotgunning cans of with trainer Jim Ramsay."

...this is actually pretty funny.

...its also scary because I know plenty of people who use Wikipedia as a reference.

I don't completely buy, nor completely doubt, the chewing reference. It is well known that chewing tobacco is popular in hockey. I doubt Jim Ramsay is shotgunning brew-skis though, that would just be irresponsible.

At least the "vandalism" makes Orr seem tough, much better than saying he dresses up in a pink tu-tu and dances to the spice girls (like Broduer does)
