Arizona Cardinals fans are joining together to try to pay the fine levied upon Carson Palmer for his crotch chop in last Sunday’s win over Seattle.
Palmer was fined $11,576 for unsportsmanlike conduct after thrusting towards the crowd after a late Arizona touchdown (video here). Now the Cardinals’ radio partner, Arizona Sports 98.7, has established a GoFundMe to try to pay Palmer’s fine, entitled the Carson Palmer Thrust Fund. It’s already raised more than $2,000.
As noted by ProFootballTalk’s Mike Florio, Palmer can’t actually pay the fine this way, so the money would probably end up going to charity.
A little solidarity between team and fanbase can’t hurt, I suppose.
