Justin Bieber's public relations team must be working overtime these days. Soon after video surfaced of the 19-year-old pop star urinating in a restaurant mop bucket and dissing Bill Clinton, he unknowingly insulted hockey fans by stepping on the Chicago Blackhawks logo in the team's locker room on Tuesday night.

Bieber might be Canadian, but he's apparently unaware of a superstition long-held by fans and players of his nation's favorite sport. Do not step on the team logo.
