PIC: German hockey duo combine to send childish snigger across the globe

Borderline NSFW

Ben Kiely

The most NSFW moment of the Rio Olympics so far may have been a very innocuous moment during a field hockey match.

We at SportsJOE have a bit of a soft spot for embracing our inner child.

It just so happens that our inner child is the smelly kid in class with a penchant for mischief and a sense of humour that, even for a child, is considered sophomoric.

This mentality really comes to the forefront when we come across athletes with rude-sounding names. And if two sports stars with equally humorous names manage to combine together, it’s like all our Christmases have come at once here at SportsJOE towers.

Well, lucky us, and anyone else who shares our affinity for juvenile humour, as a very similar incident happened at the Rio Olympics during a field hockey game between Germany and Canada.

For one brief moment during the game, two German players by the names Linus Butt and Florian Fuchs stood beside each other sparking the greatest screenshot of the games so far.

Cue the Monty Burns-esque giggle fit.
