#StuffJahlilDid: Greatest hits from Jahlil Okafor’s newest Twitter hashtag
Cars, fights, bars. His problems have run the gamut. What else could he have done wrong?
Jahlil Okafor can’t even try to get into a bar without making headlines. It’s gotten that bad.
The last few days, it was revealed that he got into a fight in Boston, had a gun pointed at him in Philadelphia, sped over 100 mph across the Ben Franklin Bridge and, finally today, that he tried to use a fake I.D. to get inside Misconduct Tavern and was turned down.
Cars, fights, bars. His problems have run the gamut. What else could he have done wrong?
Luckily, Twitter decided to make up a bunch of other problems for him. This afternoon, after the Misconduct Tavern news, #StuffJahlilDid was created, and it has taken off. Here are the best tweets of things people are saying Jahlil did.
