Singer Bieber creates a Stanley Cup stir


Justin Bieber created quite a commotion Tuesday at the United Center, and it had nothing to do with the teen pop singer's performance on stage.


A photo posted to Twitter of Bieber posing with the Stanley Cup was bad enough for some Blackhawks fans, who tweeted their distaste for the bandwagon-hopping singer. Even worse was a photo of Bieber committing the faux pas of inadvertently standing on the Indian head logo on the Hawks' dressing room floor.


Bieber also received a personalized Hawks jersey that is seen haning in the locker of team captain Jonathan Toews.


Here's the photo that Blackhawks marketing executive Peter Hassen posted to his Twitter account (@PJHASSEN), along with another tweet he posted after he became aware of the fan backlash:

@oc_sports people need to relax. Justin Bieber reaches the same market audience that we will need to be the next Blackhawks fans.
