Believe it or not, one of the most popular friendly gestures on Earth can take you right to jail. That’s what happened on the last Cavs game, when a fan was arrested for giving LeBron James a high-five.
Sure, King James definitely deserved it after scoring 50 points at the Madison Square Garden and being the key figure to crush New York. The game was just seconds away from the end and this euphoric guy raced into the court to give James a high-give and a handshake. He was soon taken away by security.
LeBron said that incident was actually like the most unbelievable thing” that’s ever happened to him, and talked a lot about how much he respected the fan for his nice words and all that. Ok…. but the guy was still arrested like a wacko criminal. I hope that respect flyes straight to the Police Dept.! I mean, why didn’t he say something? He declared he wasn’t even scared at any point when he saw the fan running towards him. So, why did he let security take him out like a dog?
King James is not usually a jerk, and we also know that was a big, big night for LeBron. However, we can’t deny it was a little “uncool”. I mean the fan was like crazy, but wasn’t harmful. It would’ve been nice if he had said something so they could let the poor guy go.
The good thing is, that incident didn’t keep the public from performing a standing ovation at the Garden for his “king”, who had one of the biggest nights in his NBA history.
