Celebrities and pro athletes like Lebron James are aware that they carry a much larger microphone than most people. So when Lebron James decided to post a video on Instagram of himself getting an unauthorized police escort to the Jay Z/Justin Timberlake concert, he had to know that it would backfire.
Bron Bron might have gotten the cops in trouble by posting the video clip you see above on Instagram.
''It has been brought to our attention that a video was posted on the Internet by LeBron James … where it shows him being escorted onto the property of Sunlife Stadium for a concert on Friday,'' the Miami-Dade Police Department said in a statement.
''Upon further investigation, it has been confirmed that the Miami-Dade
Police Department did facilitate Mr. James from one intersection to another, in the adjacent area of the stadium. This was not a scheduled escort and although all safety precautions were taken, the department has identified these actions as a violation of departmental policy. The Miami-Dade Police Department will continue to look into the matter.''
The lesson of the day: Keep certain perks you get to yourself, especially if
you have 3.5 million followers.
