Streaker interrupts Rockets vs Kings, Internet calls it 'more entertaining than game'

'Condolences to Rockets fans, who had to endure two straight losses to the Kings in Houston AND a streaker,' a user tweeted

People on the internet are amused after a naked man interrupted the game between Houston Rockets vs Sacramento Kings on Friday, April 1, as he ran onto the court and began dancing before being escorted out. As per reports, the unidentified man, who had a man bun, was only wearing what seemed like speedo-style undergarments and tall black socks and shoes.

However, as he began his antics, security forced him to the ground before lifting him and putting him outside. The game was reportedly paused for a few minutes as the situation was managed. It has been said that people in the stands started cheering while security people were taking the man outside.

A number of people have shared about the incident on Twitter with many attaching videos and pictures too. Rob Perez, an NBA Twitter personality, posted the video and wrote, “streaker on the court, gets welcomed to C̶L̶U̶T̶C̶H̶ Suplex City.” A user tweeted, “More entertaining than the game.” Another one reacted, “I hope that streaker from the Rockets game is doing okay. Not the best game to do it, but that was...something.”

A person wrote: “Man with nothing on but a g string and they decided to carry him out butt cheeks up 😭😭😭😭.” A tweet from ClutchFans read: “The Rockets had a seven-point lead when the streaker ran out on the court and have been outscored 44-28 since. This idiot might become a tanking legend. (📷 by @DaKidGowie ).”

A user expressing his amusement asked, “Why does there have to be tackling, like streakers are dangerous. Every time someone runs across a field or court the response is violent. It’s weird.” The second one said: “Today at the Rockets game Elisabeth and I for the first time came on the big screen for the kiss cam that was awesome, and for the first time we also saw a streaker run down the court 😂 #HoustonRockets.” “That streaker definitely made it memorable!” the third user noted.

A tweet reacting to the incident stated, “Wild, I've only ever seen streakers came out to play in soccer and rugby matches!  Oh! and cricket too! 😂.” Another sarcastic tweet was “Condolences to Rockets fans, who had to endure two straight losses to the Kings in Houston AND a streaker. I mean, unless that's your thing. Then no condolences for that part.” “Imagine wasting your one streaker opportunity on a 25% occupancy crowd,” a person mentioned. “I have so much more respect for arena streakers than stadium streakers. Less room to maneuver, more painful consequences for failure, smaller audience I mean these guys just simply have that dog in em,” a tweet added.

The Big Lead shared: “There was a streaker during tonight's Rockets - Kings game. Though, technically, he was wearing polka dotted underwear when security tackled him.” “Whatever happens here tonight, these have been two great games against the Kings. Down to the wire, both teams going on runs throughout both games, some brilliant highlight moments and of course... A H-Town streaker 😂 @HoustonRockets @TheRyanHollins @ca_rockets,” a user tweeted.

Meanwhile, the April Fool’s day game saw the Sacramento Kings winning as the host team lost with a final score of 122-117. The Sun reported that “the Rockets are 15th in the Western Conference. The Kings are 12th in the same conference.”
