Chris Bosh Reminds Fans Why They Love Him After Posting Another Ridiculous Video
Sports players are undoubtedly some of the best celebs to have on a social media watch list. From Dwyane Wade's Miami Heat antics to Chris Bosh dressing up as a cowboy and dancing to Old Town Road, we are totally here for it all.
Chris Bosh grew a cult-like following from many Heat fans who appreciated the big man's sense of humor during his years at Miami. Bosh joined the Heat in that fateful 2010 summer along with LeBron James and Dwyane Wade and eventually helped his fellow-all-stars win two NBA titles in four amazing years.
Unfortunately, Bosh was forced to retire prematurely due to health complications. Since then, Bosh has had his jersey hung up in the rafters and continued his class-clown ways off the court. Want proof?
Monday night, Bosh posted this hilarious Tik-Tok video of him in cowboy attire as the hit song Old Town Road plays in the background.
Here's the thing: the video itself is not really that funny on its own merits. Bosh is literally just standing there next to a horse and then a weird photo of him in a leather vest over his old Toronto Raptors uniform pops up.
The humor and magic here is just how random this thing is. Old Town Road has come and gone and while it is a certified hit, it's not like it's new. Where this video posted by anyone else, we might even think it's lame. But this is Chris Bosh we're talking about here. The guy is 100% in on the joke.
Bosh may be one of the funniest players to grace the Heat locker room. The man has a comedic resume that is pure gold. Here are some of his greatest hits:
Here's an excerpt from a campaign Bosh started to gain votes for the 2008 NBA All-Star game during his time as a Toronto Raptor. The guy is a natural clown.
Don't forget: Bosh started a whole new Miami Heat tradition: the interview bomb.
Chris Bosh would constantly interrupt Dwyane Wade and/or Dwyane Wade's post-game interviews and it was just fabulous.
In fact, the tradition lives on in the Heat organization to this day and Bosh is well aware of it. Check out this Tweet he posted a few weeks ago:
Bam Adebayo and Derrick Jones Jr. are seen pulling a Chris Bosh photobomb as Heat star Jimmy Butler conducts a post-game interview. Talk about Heat Culture.
Look out for the team to keep Bosh's legacy alive as they face the Detroit Pistons at home tonight. A win would be the best excuse for another interview bomb.
