Social media has proven time and time again bring out the inner clown in all of us. Whether it’s people consistently trying to prove how much they aren’t a bandwagon fan or athletes posting pictures of their junk (then claiming to have their Twitter account hacked) social media has in many ways become the biggest three ring circus in the World.
Which brings us to one of the biggest ass clowns in the NFL, Chicago Bears wide receiver Brandon Marshall who apparently offered some Lions fan a nice sum of money after the fan called his (Marshall’s) mom a ‘whore’.
@AnthonyGKalla: @BMarshall idk if you saw this on ig but here's a reminder http://t.co/GYT7hj3mWe
I give you 5k to get in a ring with me.

Marshall though quickly increased on his original offer to $10K before the fan could respond.
If I lose I'll give you another 10k. If I win you have to serve a 100 hours at an orphanage.
Deal?

The fan eventually counter offered with $25K which Marshall accepted while adding the stipulation that his mom also get an apology as well:
"@AnthonyGKalla: @BMarshall that's it? Cmon brandy make it 25 and we can do it in Detroit"
25 it is. Ha! You thought i wouldn't say yes.

"@AnthonyGKalla: @BMarshall that's it? Cmon brandy make it 25 and we can do it in Detroit"
And you have to apologize to my mom.

Marshall then tweeted some confirmation of the deal:
Deal or no deal bro? This is your chance to back up your talk and make 25k.

Finally after the fan made his Twitter page private he returned to accept the challenge which will I guess take place in Detroit.

Well either way, that’s one way someone’s 15 minutes is born.
