Hockey legend Jaromir Jagr can accomplish things the average 43-year-old can only dream of pulling off, like scoring goals in the National Hockey League against competition that’s half his age. And, apparently, scoring with 18-year-old models.
According to the Czech tabloid Blesk, a teen model named Catherine recently snapped a picture while in bed with the Czech hockey star, who was enjoying a recuperative slumber at the time.
It’s not exactly clear what happened to the photo after that, but the hockey star soon found himself on the receiving end of an extortion attempt.
According to the report, Jagr was hit up for around $2,000 US.
If he didn’t pay, the pic would go public.
According to The Hockey News, Jagr, who is single, told his blackmailers to knock themselves out and the photo has since gone viral.
As expected, it didn’t take long for #jagrselfie to start trending.
Here’s a look at some of the comical “Jagr bombs” making the rounds online.
