A photo is circulating on the internet of the scoreboard at Spartan Stadium that appears to show Adolf Hitler on the screen.<\/p>\n

The scoreboard showed Hitler and beside him “Austria,” the country he was born in.<\/p>\n

The photo was taken before Michigan State faced their in-state rival in No. 2 Michigan on Saturday night. The scoreboard reads “81:00” and no score, signifying that the photo took place before the game started.<\/p>\n

The original photo was posted onto X, formerly Twitter, at 6:13 p.m. ET – the game did not kick off until 7:30 p.m.<\/p>\n

The user said in another tweet that the photo came after the scoreboard read a trivia question about where Hitler was born. Another post on X said that the scoreboard was playing a trivia video from YouTube<\/a> titled “General Knowledge Trivia Quiz (Part 18)” from The Quiz Channel.<\/p>\n

Hitler was the architect of Nazi Germany during the Holocaust, which killed roughly 6 million Jews in the early 1940s. He was the dictator of Germany from 1933 until he took his own life 12 years later.<\/p>\n
