Flea Apologizes to Dwight Howard for Heckling Him in the Past

Flea: Dear Dwight Howard I humbly apologize me for heckling you when you came back to Staples as a Rocket for the first time. I supported you with all I had during your first Laker stint, and was so sad that you left. That exchange was actually a learning moment for me. Caught up in the moment with the rest of the obnoxious hecklers I yelled, “DWIGHT YOU STINK!” You turned around, looked at me and politely said “Thank you.” I always kinda thought heckling was part of the crazy fun of attending a game, part of helping my Lakers to win, but that was a wake up. I’m so grateful to have you playing with all the heart and positivity you bring to the Lakers right now, it is inspiring, and a phenomenal new chapter in your career to witness. I’ve been a Laker fan since I was a little boy and now I’m an old ass man and still cheering like a little kid.
