A video has surfaced of a disgusting moment in the Colorado Avalanche broadcast booth.
During a match a few weeks ago, color commentator Mark Rycroft took a sip from what he thought was his coffee cup. However, he made a terrible mistake.
The drink Rycroft grabbed ended up not being water, tea or coffee, but was instead the cup that play-by-play commentator Marc Moser spat into after chewing tobacco.
Rycroft immediately realized his mistake after taking the sip and quickly tried to wash the taste of discarded tobacco from his mouth with the other containers of liquid he had within reach.
Moser then grabbed a tissue and knocked the lid off his tobacco cup after accidentally drinking from it.

Both Moser and Rycroft were able to continue broadcasting throughout the ordeal, which was a testament to the professionalism of both men.
Fellow broadcaster Vic Lombardi posted the video on social media.
He noted: “This video has been under lock and key for several weeks. But it’s time. As a form of penance for @RadioMoser, we’re finally releasing the video of @RycroftMark taking a sip of Moser’s chew spitter DURING an Avalanche game.
‘To enjoy. And Merry Christmas.”
Rycroft played for the Avalanche in the 2006-07 season and joined the commentary team in 2018.
Despite the accident, it was a fun season for the Avalanche commentary duo.
The team is currently tied for first place in the Central Division with 42 points.
