'When You’re Famous They Let You Do It': Morgan Freeman Gets Trolled by Fan After Johni Broome Apologizes for Hand Smack During Game
Morgan Freeman recently welcomed a surprise trolling as Johni Broome apologized to him for a hand smack during a game. Dive deeper into the unexpected moment with Morgan.
On Saturday, a remarkable surprise awaited Auburn star, Johni Broome, when he unknowingly counteracted the action of a fan who tugged his jersey while at courtside.
The astonishment escalated when Broome spun around to catch that the fan was none other than iconic actor Morgan Freeman.
Broome's endeavor to prevent a ball from crossing the boundaries led to this unique encounter.
Freeman raised his hand presumably as a shield against any potential collision if Broome's momentum hurled him towards the seats.
Upon feeling a pull at his jersey, Broome's immediate reaction was a reflexive slap at the extending hand, only to discover the identity of the unexpected fan later.
Recognizing the acclaimed actor, Broome soon offered an apology while shaking Freeman's hand.
Broome's reaction stirred a mixed response amongst fans, referencing a seemingly different treatment towards celebrities compared to regular fans.
Here are some of their views.
Broome narrated his experience, "Initially, I concluded it was an Ole Miss fan gripping onto my jersey, just then identifying him made my day, being a passionate movie aficionado."
He further shared, "To my surprise, it was Freeman himself. I expressed my admiration and regret, to which he sanguinely encouraged me to carry on with the game."
It was undoubtedly a whirlwind of emotions for Broome; from assuming he's just warding off an over-enthusiastic Ole Miss fan in Oxford to interacting with a celestial personality, mirroring God from Bruce Almighty. It was indeed an extraordinary twist of fate.
