This has got to be one of the craziest, yet greatest NBA videos of all-time.
In February 1995, two-time NBA Champion Vernon Maxwell lost his cool and first insulted a heckler, then argued with his teammate about it, before casually walking into the stands, and towards the heckler, to deliver a devastating right hand.
When #VernonMaxwell casually walked into the stands to smack the living sh*t out of a heckler, with #BillGates watching & #JerrySeinfeld narrating. One of the greatest videos ever!

As you can see, Maxwell more than lived up to his nickname ‘Mad Max’. After this incident, the NBA suspended him for ten games and fined him $20,000; a punishment that would be infinitely higher in today’s NBA.
What makes the already great video even greater, is the fact that Bill Gates was sitting courtside while Jerry Seinfeld was providing the ‘Inside Stuff’.
