14 Years Ago Today - Chris Bosh Pours Champange All Over His Face After Winning Championship
Imagine if KAT recreated this
They said shit about Bosh too
I fucking loved Bosh.
Still do
But I used to too.
Hey Mitch!
I loved fucking Bosh.
Bosh loved fucking I
Bosh and Deron Williams were my favorites growing up
Shaq called him the Ru Paul of the NBA if I recall correctly.
You must not seen itsreal85 takes on this
Itsreal85 was doing some generational hating way before they won too. Dude was splicing up every interview and video bomb with Bosh in it.
For those that are curious
Wild times
And the crazy thing is that itsreal said that players watch his videos. Roy Hibbert even asked if he could be in one. So you know that shit was awkward in the Heat lockeroom
I haven’t seen this in years lmao Remember watching this in middle school
Bosh: “Oh God. sniffs air That’s undiscovered asshole. and you said he’s black too!? looks at camera I’ll fuck him, we’ll see”
That knicks one with Mike Woodson was also legendary lmao
Legendary coaching
and the voiceover with Melo D Rose LeBron Kobe Curry in NBA 2K 😭
Only Carmelo shoots u big dummy lol
I just wanted to touch his ding dong
They would call him all kind of gay
Ohh they went hard at bosh
This was longer before you got banned from platforms for saying slurs…
KAT could do it..hed get roasted but not nearly as bad as bosh was getting it…
2012 Twitter/facebook goddamn that was the wild west
you can get away with way more slurs on Twitter today but who TF is still on that site
People addicted to social media.
You can but if someone finds your identity and where you work you’re fired.
In 2012 you can literally go on a 2 day hate speech rally…if you called my job to report my comments you had a 90% chance the boss would call those slurs for trying to get someone fired.
2012 there was no consequences for saying anything..you can say whatever you want now but youll be all over the internet like that guy from Mexico who pulled his eyes back during world cup
I’m not sure it was any better or worse in 2012.
Papi, I no gay. I es Dominican.
There was a VERY well known video at that time that did just that. It was basically a guy at home recording bosh on TV and screaming “That N#### is gay!!!”
[deleted]
Bosh had endless allegations.
Ya like we not gonna pretend bosh wasn’t basically the precursor to KAT in this regard
Okay but like why do we care
Why does anybody care about this shit
You say that but there’s rainbow themed everything everywhere. If people didn’t care we wouldn’t be caring, but people care and that’s why we’re caring
Tf does that even mean.
Sounds like they’re complaining that gay people exist and have celebrations… or something.
I gotta delete this shitty app. Just ruins my mood
At least in the western world (not sure where you are on the planet), it represents the LGBT community. There’s other letters they’ve added to that over the years but yeah it’s their thing
So you care about the LGBT and their representation? Cool, cool
Yep me and everybody else here evidently, as LeDrags pointed out further up the comment chain
Sounds like it’s the NBA fanbase that’s never beating its allegations
“There’s rainbow themed stuff around”
Womp womp
Are you purposely being obtuse or do you not realize what the rainbow theme represents now that it’s been co-opted to be a symbol?
Noooooo they co opted my godly rainbow how will I ever be man enough now without it
Let me know once you figure it out
I’ve been knowing for a long time! Now I thinks it’s time for “insert man’s name here”Lover thinks it over as well…
Every one said stuff about Bosh, for this and quite a few other incidents. He had beef with Skip Bayless back then because skip kept calling him Bosh Spice (posh spice)
You worrying about another man’s “allegations” says more about you than him
Its really just people who aren’t comfortable enough with their own masculinity saying dumb shit like that about KAT, if we’re being honest
Fuck the Knicks on everything but this is facts
Bosh walked so Kat could run.
Prance
I don’t want to imagine
Wouldve been massively funny. Damn shame
Bosch was KAT before KAT was KAT.
Not a pair of champagne eyeglasses to be seen, back when the men were men and the sheep were scared!
No bullshit first time I saw any sort of Eyewear protection during champagne showers was Ray Allen the following year, dude had the biggest ski goggles in the room
Baseball players had them goggles on lock when the bottles came out
If you’ve ever gotten it in your eyes you know that shit burns so bad. F1 sprays if after each race and you can tell when it’s someone’s first time on the podium because they aren’t at least trying to use their hat to protect their eyes.
That’s because you simply don’t understand.
People may call me a helicopter parent fan, but I want my players popping champagne with proper eye protection, helmets, knee+elbow pads, and their locations always active on my phone. You can never be too safe.
Someone in the goggles and eyewear industry saw an opportunity.
my budy once poured champagne on his face like bosh did
14 years later and this is still nasty work lol
This was not 14 years ago. Stop. No.
Trust - it hurts me too. I had just finished 11th grade 🥀
We’re the grill masters at every cookout now, Unc 😅
Some kind Le Redditeur is about to say this comment is homophobic
you managed to be even more annoying than this hypothetical person
Was a beautiful time to be a heat fan. Seeing all these posts makes me wistful. Now we are stuck in purgatory, but it was def worth it
That Heat Harlem Shake video is still my single most favorite piece of non-basketball NBA content
I still go back and watch it at least once a year lol
Agreed. We had one of the best 20 year runs in NBA history with 3 separate “eras” in there which was awesome to see
Thats the thing i think most heat fans forget we are pretty spoiled all things considered when it comes to winning and franchise success
The last few years have been odd sure, but I always have faith in the leadership to make the right decisions
Extremely spoiled. I know they were both losses but we’ve been to the finals twice over the last 7 years…
Yeah I mean it’s only been 4 years since y’all made the finals on an extremely unlikely underdog run
This era is goated…
Hindsight is always 20⁄20 but living thru the heatels era..was insane youll never see a team covered like that…I mean in November during football season every sports show was leading with miami highlights. This was must watch tv every night..
Man im old my nephew is 17 and I was trying to explain to him how massive that team was..and im like damn kid you missed a fucking era
I wondered if it would be boring watching them smoke bottom of the barrel teams. Nope. Lebron flying through the air to grab a Wade lob was must watch TV every game.
And lets say those bottom of the barrel teams managed to steal a win brother we had 2 days worth of “is miami even good” material
Yeah it was not goated. The heat, warriors and Cavs was just the worst
Says the boston fan..
You’re not in purgatory. Look at the kings for example lol
Wish they would commit to a rebuild. It’s a free agent destination so everything else will fall in place once they have the assets. Pat Riley is too damn competitive.
I have a bad feeling even if we get Giannis. We gut our team for a superstar that’s over 30, kinda feels like best case scenario we get to the ECF (finals maybe) but can’t get over the hump, worst case he’s injured frequently and we’re stuck overpaying an aging superstar.
I wish they would blow it up and focus on the draft but I guess that’s never been their MO
That was the real nice thing about that squad. They were a lot of fun to watch on and off the court. Chris Bosh has/had better comedic sense than half the NBA
Pray you get giannis
Definitely am
Bro we’re making fun of yall
He got destroyed and IG was not even popular then. Seeing this clip fresh today would bring out the homophobes in record numbers
Some of yall are too young to remember that Bosh caught the same kind of shit KAT is getting now. I kinda wish KAT recreated this lol it was funny af when it happened.
this is almost as legendary as LeBackshots
God the comments in that thread were so fucking wild lmao. If you ever need an example of how downbad Reddit really is, look no further.
Link?
I don’t even know if this is the same thing the OP was referring to, I just saw “LeBackshots” and this was the first thing that came to my mind: https://www.reddit.com/r/nba/comments/1uaethx/10_years_ago_today_lebron_james_fell_on_his_knees/
Many thanks
Fuck I’ve never seen or want to see that again LMAOO
Kids these days will never understand how much mileage the internet got out of this one clip
Remember the one with the confetti falling into his mouth lmao
The Big Three finally got the championship they were built for.
There are kids in Africa that could have used that champagne
In case someone didn’t know, every 60 seconds in Africa, a minute passes.
Every time I clap my hands..
wtf how was this 14 years ago
The Harlem shake era
Cant be pouring no michelob on your face
All I think is that his eyes must’ve been burning lmao
Happy Fathers Day to all the great Fathers out there
BHen and Teague’s reaction to this was funny as fuck.
Champange
Uhhh
Bro almost drowned
Chris Bosh just has insane memeable moments. He just makes such funny faces.
Remember how he would video bomb every on court interview?
Why didnt Tatum recreate this iconic moment
He asks himself the same thing every day
I remember back in the day there was a funny thread on RealGM about Bosh being saucy and someone posted him looking at a stripper at the afterparty and then it was pointed out that he looked like was trying to suck the soul out of the cigar in his mouth. lolol.
cum
Must have burned the hell out of his eyes
Bosh did not get the respect he deserved. Being from toronto he will always have a place in our hearts.
That was used in every Chris bosh story after on media takeout ..yes I used to browse trash
14 yrs ago damn…
Not his first rodeo
Knicks win the chip this year and all I’m seeing is Cavs and Heat championship talk.
Smfh.
sus
He was (and is? I don’t know) very socially awkward.
No amount of money or fame can take that away.
Elon Musk is a trillionaire.
14 years time sure flies
Bosh never financially recovered from this
The other 9 Heat players in the corner mildly celebrating
Celebrating like this after ruining the competitiveness of the league the season prior is wild
itsreal85 memories
That’s unfortunate.
Yet another daily Lebron glazing post for no reason at all
Carly Rae Jepsen fantasizing about men was the #1 Billboard song when Bosh-here was also fantasizing about men.
All those years we thought it was Bosh who went the other way but it was Dwade all along
