- NHL. Panthers goalie Sergei Bobrovsky pulled after allowing 4 goals in Game 2 of Stanley Cup Final
- NHL. Vegas Golden Knights looking for double prizes: the Stanley Cup... and free lap dances for life!
A video of a reporter stiff-arming a drunken guy to keep him out of her camera shot went viral during Tuesday. Samantha Rivera, CBS Miami journalist, was in the middle of her live report when she spotted a guy trying to sabotage her job... and she just wasn't having it!
During Game 2 of the NHL Stanley Cup, where the Vegas Golden Knight defeated Florida Panthers to take a 2-0 lead in the series, Samantha Rivera was pointing out the reaction of the crowd during her live report when the incident happened, and the internet has just gone crazy over the fact she didn't even hesitate to do it and she didn't lose focus on the camera.
In an interview with Jimmy Triana from Sports Illustrated, Rivera talked about the incident.
"I could see the guy and another guy out of the corner of my eye. It looked like they were staring at us right before we were about to go live, and I think at one point I saw them pointing at us, too. But we were already on camera, and I was afraid they were gonna take me too early, so I wanted to tell my photographer something, but I couldn't, so I just kept my eye on him... And then I don't know if I heard him or felt him, but I sensed him, and the second I did, my arm just came out. It's not gonna happen! I was annoyed", she explained.
Samantha Rivera also shared that's been overwhelming to go viral, but she also feels good about receiving all the positive energy and comments from sport's fans in general.
