I like Metta World Peace. I like Ron Artest a lot more, but Metta World Peace is pretty neat too.
Overly eccentric, World Peace has calmed down from his days with the Chicago Bulls and Indiana Pacers but trouble still seems to find the former Defensive Player of the Year award winner.
Case in point? Recently, World Peace, who signed with the New York Knicks after being amnestied by the Los Angeles Lakers was in a Los Angeles area deli, apparently looking for some lunch.
Hoping to get some salad, World Peace began to ask some questions which apparently the deli owner didn’t care for, asking World Peace to not lean on the glass. That lead to Artest breaking the glass, which lead to an all out shouting match which apparently ended with the deli owner twerking.
Yeah, I can’t really explain it much further without it sounding any dumber than it already does.
I’ll let Ron-Ron do the rest:
I was just at the deli in LA. You Wil not believe what happened.

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"
— Metta (@MettaWorld37) August 29, 2013
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.
— Metta (@MettaWorld37) August 29, 2013
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

Yeah, I don’t even.
