Houston GM Spotted Watching Game with Body Pillow, Weaboos Flock to Bulls' Fandom

[Gustav 6,407]

WEDNESDAY--The Bulls' 10-1 loss to Philadelphia in their season opener was not exactly the way GM Alexander Pepper hoped to kick off his return to VHLM management. The Reapers took control with a 3-0 first period and did not take their collective foot off the gas even once, handing Houston an embarrassing loss which exceeded even the wildest projections for the Bulls' rebuilding season. There wasn't much for Houston fans to appreciate during the game, but a shot of Pepper during the second period went viral in the days that followed.

 

"...and it looks like the GM is crying, Biff," said TV play-by-play man Rex Bluefield 16 minutes in, after Damien Wolfe netted his second of the game to make the score 6-1. "Crying into some sort of...pillow or something."

 

"That's what it looks like to me," agreed color commentator Biff McMaster. "That's one big pillow, though. I'm not sure I've ever seen one quite like it."

 

The broadcast moved back to on-ice action shortly thereafter, but Thursday morning saw anime pictures and videos all over the Bulls' social media pages, with Pepper being tagged in many and with the team's social media staff scrambling to report and remove all pornographic material. Searching for answers, as the media does, fans who attended Wednesday's game were visited by crews of reporters trying to get the inside scoop.

 

"I know exactly what that is," said Brody Gregory, a diehard fan of all things both hockey and anime. "That's a Kagamine Rin body pillow if I've ever seen one. I've got mine with me right here, and I bring her with me everywhere I go. Some people say that's why I've never had a successful job interview, but I wouldn't work for anyone who won't hire my waifu, too."

 

"Yeah, his pillow is a bit dirtier than mine, but he's definitely got the same model I do," claimed Loren Fabiano, another fan of the same variety. "I hope he treats her well. I like to take mine for walks in the park, and she's got her own Instagram page." 

 

When contact with Pepper for further explanation was made, he declined to comment.
