The streets of New Orleans turned into a battleground for former Major League Baseball stars Patrick Mahomes Sr. and John Rocker after Super Bowl LIX. The heated argument quickly spiraled into an online war, sparking viral conversations and wild speculation.
A now-viral video captured the dramatic moment outside a bar when tensions flared. Mahomes Sr., 54, was standing with friends when Rocker approached him for a handshake. Things took a sharp turn when Mahomes abruptly pulled his hand back, escalating into a fiery exchange filled with finger-pointing and profanities.
“What are you talking about?” Rocker shouted, visibly confused as Mahomes jabbed his finger toward his face. Witnesses tried to defuse the situation, but the two men locked eyes, trading insults while a small crowd gathered around.
The incident ended with Mahomes being escorted away by friends, but it didn’t stop there. Both men continued the argument on social media, with Mahomes tweeting:
“John Rocker is a menace to society.”
Rocker fired back with a string of aggressive responses on X (formerly Twitter), including:
“** PATRICK MAHOMES,”** and “Mahomes is lucky he got away. I would have Rocked him.”
PR Stunt or Real Feud?
Some fans have speculated that this fiery encounter could be a clever PR stunt teasing a potential celebrity boxing match. However, there’s been no confirmation from either party.
While we wait for answers, one thing is clear—this spat has left social media buzzing, and fans can’t get enough of the drama. — The Independent
