Philadelphia 76ers star Joel Embiid and legendary comedian Kevin Hart were captured in a hilarious frame and the Internet went ruthless about it.
NBA star Joel Embiid had himself quite the weekend a few days back. In one weekend, this Philadelphia 76ers Center played his best game of the season in a huge comeback win over the Denver Nuggets on Saturday. And on Sunday, Embiid had a blasting time enjoying the NFC Championship Game.
Ever since Embiid has been playing for the Philadelphia 76ers, he has established himself to be a big football fan and his favorite team is none other than the Philadelphia Eagles.
Embiid might be a superstar but he often pulls up to football games and has a merry time throughout.
So, the NFC Championship Game was no different for Embiid. As a true and loving Eagles fan, he reached the stadium to wholeheartedly support his favorite Eagles team.
This time, Embiid decided to show his support upfront and went straight to the sideline during pregame.
On the sideline, there awaited a twist. Along with Embiid, fellow Philadelphia Eagles frantic, Kevin Hart was also spotted on the sideline.
Now, at that moment, the fun part happened. As Embiid met up with Hart, their height difference was what caught everybody’s attention.
Embiid is 7-foot-0 while Hart is 5-foot-2. There is a 22-inch difference between the two!
Even the Fox cameraman had a hard time filming the conversation between Hart and Embiid. The height difference between these two personalities is so massive that the cameraman could barely fit them both in the same frame. Hart was pushed down into the corner, with only his head and shoulders visible!
Things were really set into perspective when a photo of the two standing side-by-side, along with Fanatics CEO Michael Rubin was posted.
Hart is 5-foot-2 and has to deal with people taller than him on regular basis. Even Hart’s wife is 4 inches taller than him!
After the picture of Embiid and Hart was posted, Twitter exploded with vicious comments mocking Hart’s height. Here are some of it:
But it is not a common sight even for Hart to come across a 7-footer like Embiid. The height difference between them really created a fabulous juxtaposition.
