Metta World Peace is always an incredible story teller, so when he took to his Twitter account to let us all know about his run-in at a deli in Los Angeles, it was unbelievable. From iPhone 2’s to price tags to racial profiling, World Peace’s deli story had it all.

It is really one that you will need to read to believe, so get your popcorn ready and enjoy the show:

So the store was telling me what to do like , please do not lean on the glass.

I was offended so I elbowed it and broke the glass. Then..

I told the store owner he was bias because his sign was only for black people. I was also annoyed that prices were on items!!

I felt that prices being on items were his way of saying "dumb boy , here is the price" I ripped off all the price tags. I was like

"What you think, I can't guess the price. I can guess. That's racist man. You gonna put the price on the items because I'm black"

So me and the store owner were arguing. He had one tooth and I had price tags stuck to my hand. Like 65 price tags.

I also tested food

He got mad at me because I was asking him how much is the salad by the pound.

He could really talk wit one tooth. So I had him text me

So now we are text arguing. But my phone was running out of battery and I asked him "you got an iPhone 2 charger Habibi "
— Metta (@MettaWorld37) August 29, 2013

He flipped out! "U want a charger , then stick the price tags back on the items. " I'm like " he'll no, I don't even know where to put them"

So basically dude thought twerking was going to scare me. He started twerking. I'm like"Keep ur price tags. I'm out" it worked.
— Metta (@MettaWorld37) August 29, 2013

So the moral of this story is , when I walk into your store, it's a price tag check fool. 4 reel doe
