Lululemon Enrages Buffalo Sports Fans By Commemorating Their Most Agonizing Losses In History

The store installed a mosaic in the floor that reads: "Wide Right" and "No Goal."
"That's a jab-in-the-gut reference to the two darkest moments in the city's sports history: Bills kicker Scott Norwood's potential Super Bowl-winning field goal kick sailing wide right in 1991, and the Sabres' 1999 loss of the Stanley Cup when the Dallas Stars' Brett Hull appeared to have a skate in the crease when scoring the Cup-winning goal," writes Yahoo News' Jay Busbee.
Local sports fans were outraged.
The company has since apologized and covered up the mosaic with a black floor mat.
This isn't the first time that Lululemon has ignited outrage for its store displays.
Last year, one of its Dallas stores posted a sign appearing to mock a charity that helps battered women.
"We do partners yoga, not partners card," the sign read, referring to the Family Place charity's "Partners Card," which costs $70 and offers deep discounts at 750 area stores - not including Lululemon - to help raise money for women's' shelters.
