Guy Makes 35-Minute Drive To Fight Kobe Bryant Hater After Christmas Twitter Fight
By Sam Richmond
Two NBA fans engaged in a Twitter fight about Los Angeles Lakers Kobe Bryant on Christmas that culminated with one driving 35 minutes to fight the other.
There’s no doubt that sports can bring us together, but, with many fans having strong opinions these days, often times it brings us apart.

There’s no greater proof of that than what transpired between Twitter users @SnottieDrippen and @MyTweetsRealAF on Christmas night.
The two engaged in an argument about Kobe Bryant’s effectiveness, which resulted in the two setting up a meeting place to fight.
Here’s a sampling of some of the tweets exchanged (Warning: NSFW language):
After a lot of back-and-forth like this, the fight was set up.
While @SnottieDrippen apparently wasn’t serious about wanting to fight, as he later revealed he was in Arizona eating Christmas dinner with his family, @MyTweetsRealAF was more than willing to throw down, as he, in fact, made the drive to Temecula.
So why did this NBA fan make this long drive to fight after a Twitter argument? He says it was all about respect.
And this, my friends, is a prime example of a Twitter fight gone wrong.
