That could have gotten out of hand fast.

Police in Boston have revealed that a man arrested outside an NHL game on New Year's Day was carrying an assortment of primitive weapons that would not have looked out of place in an Anchorman dust-up. Foxborough Police Department released a photo of the weapons, which were seized from a man in the parking lot at Gillette Stadium, the home of the NFL's New England Patriots, which was hosting the NHL's annual Winter Classic between the Boston Bruins and the Montreal Canadiens. The weapons included a sword, crossbow, stun gun, katana and a rusty meat cleaver, and the man in question, 48-year-old Matthew Bromson, is now facing multiple weapons charges. https://twitter.com/FoxboroughPD/status/683295721307652097
