Jim Sacco estimates that his son Josh has watched “Miracle,” the film about the 1980 U.S. Olympic men’s hockey team’s legendary upset of Russia, nearly 150 times. Apparently, the movie has made quite an impression on the young fan.
Nicknamed “Rizzo” after the gold medal-winning team’s captain Mike Eruzione, Josh sparked an Internet sensation this week when his hilarious, inspirational and eerily impeccable interpretation of actor Kurt Russell’s locker room speech as Coach Herb Brooks went viral — spreading everywhere from blogs to USA Today to the “Ellen” show.

From Mediaite…
…we contacted the Pittsburgh police to see if anyone had reported the arrest. They referred us to the G20 Joint Information Center, which gave us this stunning statement:“The individuals involved in the 9/24/09 arrest, which has appeared online, are law enforcement officers from a multi-agency tactical response team… It is not unusual for tactical team members to wear camouflage fatigues. The type of fatigues the officers wear designates their unit affiliation.
Prior to the arrest, the officers observed the subject vandalizing a local business. Due to the hostile nature of the crowd, officer safety, and for the safety of the person under arrest, the subject was immediately removed from the area.”
