Mascot beware!
who is he and what did he do? never heard of him.
Did he push another mascot?
Punch another athlete?
What did he do?
What did he do?
I apologize for double post, my mistake.
Took his shirt off with 100m to go
Are there pictures yet? Video?
He ripped his shirt off with 100m to go in the Euro Champs steeple.

And he's an idiot for that? Er...OK.
According to the announcers he was given a yellow card but not DQd.
I guess that means if he does it again he could be DQd.
Does that mean that everyone else gets one free strip show too?
Should have just DQd him to put a stop to it. Rules require number to be visible and how can it be visible when you put the vest in your mouth?
Which he did going over the last steeple. Ewww.
I don't get it. An idiot? But he won.
I don't know. I certainly have no issues with athletes who show some personality and celebrate their victories (after finishing). But ripping your shirt off during the race and crossing the last barrier with it in your mouth is somewhat over the top, isn't it? I am surprised that it even seems to be legal because competition guidelines are usually rather strict.

In his MOUTH? Heh - maybe he is an idiot.
In 2010 he punched a mascot, in 2012 he knocked the mascot over. Let us be happy for the least dumb and most entertaining thing he's done at Euro Champs in the last 6 years.
The fact that he was given a yellow card shows that it's not legal. But they didn't have the stones to DQ him.
Go Mahiedine!!!!

"punched a mascot"? This is the funniest thing I've heard of in athletics for YEARS. What did the mascot do to deserve being punched? Must've been something.
