Mosca and Kapp Scrap

[Bramaca]

What happened at a get-together hosted by the CFL Alumni Association goes like this: the attendees and guests were shown a replay of the controversial highlight from the 1963 Grey Cup, Mosca’s sideline hit on B.C. Lions’ running back Willie Fleming. The tackle put Fleming out of the game and helped the Hamilton Tiger-Cats win the Cup. Mosca has forever been cast the villain for what many believe was a late hit.

According to various accounts, Kapp, the Lions quarterback in 1963, went to present Mosca with a rose Friday as a peace offering. Mosca brushed it off, Kapp responded and a scuffle broke out. Word was Mosca even used his cane to ward off Kapp, who countered with a punch.

Nothing like seeing a couple 73 year old football players fight over a hit that happened 5 decades ago. Nice kickoff to Grey Cup weekend, combine it with that great Vanier Cup and things are looking good for an entertaining game.

Here is the Youtube video of it. Kapp throws a couple good punches. The fight is in the first minute of the video but its worth it to watch later on from when Mosca gets the mic, there is a few good verbal jabs and Kapp closes it out really nice.

HOLY **** that was awesome.

All I can think when I see this is "...Well that escalated fast didn't it?"

Outside the actual fight my favorite part was Kapp's story about the dog, priceless.

Yeah great ending. Really awkward response from the crowd though. Not a single person laughed.

This thing has gone viral. Wonder how many hits it gets. They even had it on in the states on Good Morning America saying they thought Canadians were friendly. What a hoot.
