As he and a teammate walked back toward the field from inside the tunnel, a Texas state trooper appeared to walk between the pair, bumping shoulders with both, and then turned around and pointed at them — shouting at them in the process.
In a statement to The Athletic, the Texas Department of Public Safety said, “The DPS Trooper involved has been sent home from the game. DPS’ Office of Inspector General (OIG) is also aware of the incident and will be further looking into the matter.”
The scene was caught by college football fans across social media, sparking outrage in even The King himself, as LeBron James posted about the incident on X.
That’s kind of bizarre. I really like the state troopers as a whole: they’re the number one authority for busting human trafficking and corruption scandals, if only because Republicans keep figuratively neutering the FBI.
EDIT: Ah wait no, I was confusing the troopers with the marshals. One is highway patrol and the other is an investigative body.
It’s only 99% of them that make the rest look bad
Actually, yk what, I was thinking of State Marshals.
