LeBron James got into with some fans sitting courtside and they were not happy at all

One fan left with the double-bird salute.

The Atlanta Hawks are apparently allowing fans to sit courtside at games these days and on Monday night two of them got a little heated with LeBron James, so much so that the game was stopped and the fans were removed.

For real.

The fans didn’t seem to be too happy about being removed, either, as one  woman reportedly gave the double-bird salute on her way out.

I don’t know the details of what was said, all I know is it was enough for the refs to pause the game and have security step in.

This happened with a little over eight minutes left in the fourth quarter. Check this out:

Amazing.
