What happened at the Bucks vs Celtics game?
During the game between the Milwaukee Bucks and Boston Celtics on Sunday, April 30, referees Scott Foster and Ed Malloy were caught on camera asking each other about a man in a “white shirt”, and little did they know that their casual exchange would become a viral moment.
Seated in the audience was Jack Harlow, but he was a stranger to Scott, who turns to ask his fellow referee and asks: “Who is Jack Harlow?”.
When Ed replies, “I have no idea. Who is he?”, Scott says: “I don’t know. Go ask him.”
The clip will surely crack Jack’s fans up.
But, for those who don’t know the man in the white shirt, there is a movie reference, which could perhaps make you want to look him up.
