The Sixers fan described the interaction with LeBron.
“LeBron crashed into me. He grabbed me. He said, my bad, my drink spilled everywhere. He took my drink from me and he basically just took a sip of it, gave it back, and ran back on the field. You know what I mean? I’m just glad for him to be here. You know, I’m not worried about the wine getting on me. You know, but you know, I appreciate everything the Sixers is doing and I’m here to have a good time, man. I appreciate it.”
The fan says that he didn’t end up keeping the cup LeBron drank from.
“I mean, at the end of the day, he another man like me and he’s a regular. I mean, he’s LeBron, but at the end of the day, I threw that trash, the cup in the trash, and it’s nothing up with him. I just got a fresh drink.”
