An Argentinos Juniors fan was so fed up at the miserable season his team was having he
threw his fake teeth at the head coach while the coach was arguing a call on the pitch.
Monday's 3-1 loss to Belgrano was just too much for the unidentified fan who hurled his phony uppers at Ricardo Caruso Lombardi while fans unleashed a chorus of boos and threatening chants against the last place club which has lost five straight.
Announcers from Argentina's TV Pública took in the bizarre scene from the broadcast booth while cameras zoomed in on the dentures that landed a few feet from an oblivious Lombardi, who was arguing in vain with the fourth referee in the dying moments of the match.
"I've never seen anything like this ... key chains, radios, shoes, but teeth?"
Dentures were just one of the things hurled at Lombardi and his players by fans at Diego Maradona Stadium.
Despite the dire situation and one toothless fans' hatred of him, Lombardi was confident, even defiant, during Monday's post-game press conference.
"I have the balls that are needed to prevail. And if we have to go [to the second division], we'll do it with our heads held high."
As for the still unknown denture-throwing culprit, just look for the guy gumming his chorizo in the stands.
