The Penguins were preparing for a big night in Pittsburgh. The game and the evening when fans could receive a unique figure.

Bobbleheads of the great Jaromir Jagr were going to be distributed to the attendees.

The Penguins had retired Jagr's jersey in the past weeks, and the organization wanted to host another event.

Unfortunately, the truck carrying all the figures was robbed, and the items were all stolen.


The Pens thus have nothing to offer the fans tonight.

"The Penguins announced today that the cargo carrying the Jagr figures for tonight's game was stolen while it was en route to Pittsburgh.

As a result, the figures will not be distributed at tonight's game, but will be at a later date. - Pittsburgh Penguins"


At least, the franchise where Mario Lemieux played for a long time has found a way to still reward the fans who had bought tickets for this tribute to the great 68.

"All fans present will receive a voucher including a unique scannable barcode that will be necessary to retrieve the figure at a later date.

The location and pickup dates will be shared when the items are located securely or when new figures are produced and available for distribution."
