Mighty Mite football players taken out by banner, are real-life ‘Little Giants’ (Video)

The Wallkill (NY) Mighty Mites were beyond fired up for their first home game of the season this week. Unfortunately for the little guys, their parents don’t know how to hold a damn banner.

The Walkill Mites tried to run through a banner and shred it, but they wound up getting clotheslined instead. The end result was a massive pile of 50-pound players flopping all over each other and trying to figure out which way was up.

Simply put, they turned into the real-life “Little Giants.” If you don’t get that reference, you need to reevaluate your childhood. I definitely blame the parents here. You have to hold the banner tighter than that. Basic physics.
