Bieber fan vandalizes Rick Rypien memorial

Canadian pop sensation Justin Bieber literally threw up onstage a couple weeks ago in Arizona.

On Thursday, as the Bieber tour hit Rogers Arena, it was a fan of the Biebs who metaphorically threw up on a space held sacred by Vancouver’s hockey fans.

The outdoor column used as a space for Canucks supporters to scrawl their respects and leave flowers for deceased player Rick Rypien, who took his own life in 2011, was “vandalized” by a J.B. fan, reported Deadspin on Thursday.

A Canucks fan spread word of the regrettable marking:

The Bieber fan, who inscribed her name on the column, was hit with a barrage of nasty, profanity-laden tweets for disgracing “a fallen Canuck,” and her @simiran_mann_ account was soon deleted.

Many of the messages were scrubbed off Thursday morning, according to the Vancouver Sun.
