A kick in the face anyway?

Footage of a doubles pickleball match, specifically the handshake exchanged after the match, is going viral on social media. And, well, things got intense. (Related: Now Airing! Mike Tyson Beats the Eternal Hell Out of Jake Paul. Get Your Netflix Ready Now)

The video shows the player in the green shirt scoring the winning goal, clearly excited and bursting with brilliant energy in the name of victory. When he went up to the net to say “good game” to his opponent, he accidentally knocked the paddle out of his opponent’s hand.

The guy who no longer had a paddle was wearing pink pants and didn’t understand the moment at all. While the victorious man in the green shirt was reaching for his paddle, Mr. Pink Shorts delivered a solid kick to his face, causing the man in the green shirt to fall. And to make matters even crazier, Mr. Pink Shorts tried to beat him up some more, but was quickly stopped by his partner in the green shirt.

Pickleball is America’s fastest growing sport. But if people are kicking each other in the face over losing, maybe the game should be scaled back a bit. @stoolpickleball pic.twitter.com/xAuJSsrrTe

Pickleball… it’s so much more than that. (lol)

But Mr. Pink Shorts is a complete idiot. He has no intention of doing anything other than slowing the growing momentum of pickleball. Please ban him!
