Mike Epps busted for sending tweet that he’s at Heat-Pacers game
Actor/comedian Mike Epps was totally busted Sunday for trying to brag that he was at Game 1 of the Eastern Conference finals between the Pacers and Heat in Indianapolis.
Epps, who is from Indianapolis, has been all about the Pacers lately. His avatar features him in a Pacers jersey. He sent tons of tweets to get the people pumped up for Game 1. He was trying to prove himself as a leader of “Pacer Nation.” Witness:
TONIGHT HEAT VS PACERS !!! WHEN Y'ALL THOUGHT IT WAS OVER !!! NAPTOWN LETS GOOOOOOO #PacerNation

And then came the cheerleading during the game:
We are built to beat the heat

Seems all good so far, right? Epps trying to etch himself into the Pacers fabric as the team’s celebrity fan. We get it. But then he went out and did this:

Yes, that’s a picture of the Heat and Pacers playing, but it’s not from Sunday’s game. The Heat were wearing red and the fans were wearing yellow. Whoops!
