Fan Fined $200 For Throwing Banana At Flyers' Wayne Simmonds

The London fan who threw a banana at Philadelphia Flyer forward Wayne Simmonds during an NHL exhibition game, Sept. 22, in London, Ontario will be fined $200. Christopher Moorhouse, 26, did not appear in court Monday but did pleaded guilty to provincial trespassing and given 90 days to play the fine for an incident that happened during a shootout against the Detroit Red Wings.

Police said there wasn't enough evidence to charge Moorhouse with a hate crime on Simmonds, who's an African-American.
