The Vancouver Canucks have had a terrible start to the season. They are 0-5-2, and the fans are outraged. Jerseys have been thrown on the ice, and the overall atmosphere in Vancouver is awful. One group of fans took their anger to another level, when they happened to see JT Miller and his family at a local pumpkin patch.
One Reddit user on r/canucks witnessed the event, as it was at the pumpkin patch he worked at, and he shared the experience.
I saw him today at the pumpkin patch I work at today. He was with his family and looked pretty tired and stressed. I left him alone because he is with his family. Some 'fans' went up to him yelling at him and chirping him when he was with his kids. It needs to stop. Lets save the comments for when they are on the ice or at work, leave them alone in public.
While fans deserve to be angry over the Canucks' dreadful performance, taking out the anger on a player in public, especially when they're with their family, is absolutely unacceptable.
Hopefully the atmosphere in Vancouver will improve soon.
