Charles Robinson Recalls Being Bitten By A Bat, Jokes That He’s Now A Vampire

On August 13, referee Charles Robinson revealed he was bitten by a bat.

Speaking to Chris Van Vliet on Insight, Robinson detailed what happened.

“Sleeping, 2am in the morning, hear a noise in the bedroom. We have two cats. One’s named George, the other is Michael, George Michael. So I got up, used my flashlight, saw the two cats sitting there with their toys. I said ah, cats, they’re just playing, having a good time. Well, there was a big black blob right in the middle of the room, and we carry black latex gloves as a referee. So I said, hey, they got my glove. I better pick it up so they don’t choke on it. Being the good cat dad that I am bent down, picked it up, and that sucker bit me. Came down the chimney. So, five hours in hospital, seven shots later, and no reflection [laughs]. I’m a vampire,” he said.

Charles Robinson said that he spent four hours in the ER and got six shots.
