The UCLA Bruins opened their brand new Pauley Pavilion with an 86-59 win over Indiana State Saturday night, which means that NCAA Men’s Basketball is underway and people can begin pretending like anything matters before March. But the actual reason that I’m bringing this up is that once-celebrated star of awesome movies like Braveheart, Lethal Weapon 1-3 (4 never happened) and the wildly underrated Payback, Mel Gibson, was in attendance with his son, because what the hell else is a guy who destroyed his career gonna do on a Saturday night?
Of course, because he’s been branded as a psychopathic, woman-beating, anti-Semitic, racist in recent years, people don’t necessarily like Gibson that much. That’s why it shouldn’t surprise anyone that his reception by Bruins fans was less than warm.
During a stoppage in play the Lethal Weapon(s) star was featured on the new HD jumbotrons hanging over center court, in a montage of notable attendees.

He also apparently looked directly at the camera to inform the video crew that the people were booing him by saying, “They’re booing me.” My, how the mighty have fallen. In fact, Gibson has fallen so far that people also just assume that he’s a total creeper perv. For instance, here’s a sentence that Jersey Chaser included about Gibson’s seat location, near the visiting team’s bench and neck deep in angry fan territory.
Some would argue is a fair trade off for being close enough to touch/poke a UCLA cheerleaders cheeks.
You see, Gibson is allegedly a scumbag, so he would probably try to poke a cheerleader’s ass in front of thousands of people. I believe that is the implication there. But let’s take it a step further with our friends from the Daily Mail, who ran this headline about Gibson’s game attendance:
“Keeping his eyes OFF the ball: Mel Gibson can't help himself as he ogles cheerleaders at the basketball”
It’s okay, I always forget to finish
As for the alleged ogling of this UCLA dancer, let’s examine the pictures that the Daily Mail provided as evidence.
This is just blatant. Look at the way he's staring directly at this Bruins dancer's chest from behind her. I mean, he's not even trying to be nonchalant.
What's remarkable about a pervert like Gibson is that he has trained his eyes to appear like they're looking one way while he's actually looking another. In this case, he's pretending to look at the video screen, but his eyes are locked in on her chest yet again. Shameless.
This one is even more remarkable, because Gibson is showing just how incredibly trained his pervert gaze is. His ability to look all the way to his left while actually staring at this girl's ass reveals that he is a black belt ass-watcher.
Mel might as well just shove his face right down this poor girl's shirt at this point. It's insulting how obvious he is.
You should be ashamed of yourself, Mel Gibson. And you should be locked away for the rest of your perverted life.

I heard he’s planning on bringing his gf to the Rose Bowl. Or was that the Boston Garden? I’m sorry, I can’t remember the exact phrasing.
Stop slandering people! Pigs!
Can’t tell if this is real or not.
Please be real!!
So stop slander people and pigs? By legal definition parody is not slander in the US so you must be talking about the advertisers, which is a terrible thing to accuse Ford Motor Company of.
Besides, this would actually be libel, wouldn’t it?
The best part about your “wildly under-rated Payback” quip is that Spike TV obviously agrees with you; they play that motherfucker, like, twice a day trying to convince the world how awesome it is.
The only reason I love it so much is because I just go nuts when Lucy Liu says, “Hubba hubba”. I don’t know why.
I love it when she’s all like, “Hey fat boy! You so fat. Why you so fat, fatboy?” and then gets punched in the face
…that was probably Mel’s favorite scene too even if he didn’t get to do the punching.
Mel Gibson couldn’t do anything that I wouldn’t forgive him for, because of Lethal Weapon. Well maybe if he did it to me, although I’m not a dirty jew so he can’t really hurt my feelings.
Even if he was really staring, could you really blame him? Come on, it’s the Pac-12. No one beats us when it comes to smoking hot cheerleaders.
Go look at the UCLA dance team’s website. I’m actually mad that he’s not staring at them more.
Trust me, I know exactly what you mean.
if anything he could’ve been staring more, who cares
Oh, who could blame him…unless you’re the queer that posted this story. Calling him a pervert because he looks at a 18+ year-old cheerleader that is standing 5 feet in front of him? I guess the guy that posted this must be queer.
I’ll freely admit that one of the reasons why I always sat in the spot I did in the student section at Arizona for basketball games was because I was right behind the pomline girls. That wasn’t the only reason, of course, but it definitely played into it.
Maybe you should reexamine how you understand jokes. Also you maybe should reexamine your fourth-grader approach to the supposed derogatory use of the term queer.
I can’t stay mad at Mel Gibson. I mean, I’ve said some pretty fucked up shit that I wanted to take back to certain ex-girlfriends who, at the time, I considered to be filthy whores. The guy has given me much more cinematic pleasure than emotional pain is all. Is he an asshole? Yeah, sure. I’ve had bosses who were assholes, but I kept going to work.
RE MOOSE: I don’t see the humor in labeling somebody a pervert, anti-Semitic, woman-beating, psychopathic racist. So, no need to reexamine my understanding of a ‘joke’. Also, what is derogatory about the term queer. Perhaps you would have preferred faggot, or is fruitcake better?
