Social Media Reacts to the Viral Video
The video quickly caught fire on social media, sparking memes, jokes, and concern. One user on X (formerly Twitter) quipped, “Gonna be a long flight home,” while another wrote, “Folks, this is why you never choose K-State!” Tim Fitzgerald, a well-known Kansas State insider, identified the men involved as Mark Johnson (Avery Johnson’s father) and Avery’s older brother. No arrests have been reported, and the information remains unverified by official sources.
Tough Night for Kansas State on and off the Field
The drama came after a hard-fought loss in the Aer Lingus Classic, where Iowa State’s Rocco Becht led his team to victory with two passing touchdowns and one rushing score. Avery Johnson still delivered a solid performance with 273 passing yards and two touchdowns, plus a rushing TD. But turnovers and poor weather hampered the Wildcats. Unfortunately for Johnson, the action didn’t end with the final whistle, his family’s post-game clash has now become the biggest headline.
