The University of Wisconsin announced that the man in the video has been banned from attending any future Badgers’ home games.
“We join with @UWBadgers and all #Badgers in condemning the abhorrent anti-Asian actions of an attendee at the Northwestern game this week,” the tweet reads. “We applaud NU for removing him. He is no longer welcome at UW Athletics events – we are barring him from buying tickets on our platform.”
