JiDion is a prominent YouTuber who is best known for his over-the-top pranks, which sometimes take place at high-profile sporting events. In the past, JiDion has been kicked out of athletic competitions like the US Open after getting a haircut while sitting courtside. (He also got a haircut while sitting courtside at an NBA game the year prior, although he didn\u2019t get punished for this particular cosmetic kerfuffle.) Although JiDion\u2019s sporting pranks have seen him sitting on the sidelines, his latest practical joke saw him get in on the action \u2014 which caused him to get kicked out of the game, entirely. On July 19, JiDion uploaded a prank video where he decided to troll players and fans at a WNBA game between the Minnesota Lynx and the Dallas Wings. After complaining about the heat to a referee, the ball flew into the crowd \u2014 right where JiDion was sitting. He managed to retrieve the ball, but instead of giving it to a ref, he decided to attempt a jump shot\u2026 and failed. (Topic begins at 4:50) However, his stunt caused him to get kicked out of the game. A member of the arena\u2019s staff led him away from the court and informed him that he wasn\u2019t allowed to shoot the ball in a conversation that JiDion caught on tape. \u201cWe will send you home tonight,\u201d the staff member said. \u201cYou might get a trespass from the team. You should have not taken a shot during the game.\u201d JiDion fans spam WNBA Instagram account after YouTuber pulls off \u2018sleeping\u2019 prank JiDion didn\u2019t let this bring him down, though, and managed to attend another WNBA game in Los Angeles where he laid down on some courtside seats and took a nap \u2013 blanket, pillow, and all. However, he ended up getting booted out of that game, as well \u2013 and subsequently banned from \u201call NBA-related events\u201d by staff. JiDion\u2019s fanbase has seemingly taken to the comments section on the WNBA\u2019s official Instagram account, as a result of his latest pranks, spamming sleeping emojis to match the title of JiDion\u2019s video: \u201cDon\u2019t Sleep on the WNBA!\u201d As previously stated, this is far from the first time JiDion\u2019s antics have gotten him booted out of a sporting event \u2014 and it wouldn\u2019t be the first time he\u2019s been threatened with trespassing charges, either. In fact, JiDion was charged with criminal trespassing back in April after his prank at a Texas University landed him in hot water with the law.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>JiDion banned from all NBA related events for sleeping at WNBA game YouTube: JiDionYouTube prankster JiDion got banned from \u201call NBA-related events\u201d after catching some Z\u2019s at a WNBA game in his latest high-profile sports prank.
