A Milwaukee Bucks fan must have had the surprise of his life while sitting courtside during his team’s victory over the Detroit Pistons earlier this week.
The Bucks pulled off the win in spite of Giannis Antetokounmpo’s ejection early in the third quarter and the decision landed the fan a video he will probably back up a few hundred times to ensure it’s never lost.
Giannis was thrown out of the game for a second technical after dunking on Isaiah Stewart and then taunting the Pistons forward. He was understandably incensed after receiving his marching orders, arguing with the officials, and, at one point, sitting between two fans in the front row while asking them to come get him.
One of the fans was already recording the exchange between Giannis and the refs and expertly switched to selfie mode when the two-time MVP suddenly sat next to him.
He was seen sharing a laugh with a female fan right after.

“Very impressed with the quick flip to selfie mode. 95% of us would have panicked and been hitting the flashlight button instead,” someone wrote in the comments after the video was posted to Instagram by Barstool Sports.
What remarkable camera skills.
As for the ejection, it’s probably one of the softest you’ll ever see.
