The Dumbest Halftime Show Idea This Week, Team Issues Apology

((HT: NLL/Youtube-HollywoodBoston))

The HQ knows full well that for niche sports to succeed, you've got to put butts in the seats and you have to have people spend their disposable income your way.

The HQ also thinks the Boston Blazers of the NLL kinda went way-the-hell over the line by catering to the least common denominator...

Trying to give three young ladies the task of lap dancing an inflatable mascot...

Nice work, genius...

MONDAY UPDATE: The Blazers waited until Monday to issue their standard apology...

GM Doug Reffue says the team was "extremely disappointed" with parts of the halftime show Saturday. Reffue said it was part of a halftime promotion that "wasn't executed according to how it was spelled out to us."

Well, okay then...

Reffue said the dancers were not members of the Blazers' dance team, but fans who volunteered for the halftime promotion. He wouldn't elaborate any further and said it won't happen again.

Well, okay then... we've all been warned...
Darn FM radio station promotion partner...
