Wietrzyk’s major sponsor, Puma, is distancing itself from the athlete by quietly removing “Joanna Wietrzyk x PUMA” clothing items from its website. But a spokesperson for Puma says there’s “no change” to their partnership with Wietrzyk, telling CBC News in a statement Thursday that some landing pages were “unintentionally taken offline.”
On social media, people have flooded the brand’s comments with plays on “Puma,” such as “Pooma,” “Poopma” and “Poo Ma Pants.”
