Fantasy Football League’s Teddy Bear Restaurant Date Punishment Goes Viral

If there’s one golden rule of playing fantasy football, it’s this: don’t come in last place.

Sure, there’s glory and riches to be had by winning a fantasy title, but more than anything else, you really want to avoid the shame and disgrace of bringing up the rear. One player learned this lesson the hard way after being subjected to his league’s, shall we say, creative form of punishment.

Giants beat writer Zack Rosenblatt of The Star-Ledger shared on Twitter his league’s unique requirement for its last-place finisher. As penance for being the worst player in the league, basement-dweller Chris was forced to go eat at a fancy restaurant with a very large stuffed Winnie the Pooh animal.
