UNC Mascot Sucker-Punched After Villanova Buzzer-Beater
Posted Apr 5, 2016

During the melee, it seems like the Tar Heels' mascot may have gotten sucker-punched by someone on the court. In the lower left portion of the video you can see the mascot get punched, only to be restrained when he gets back up and tries to go after the person responsible.
