Speaking to Jalen Brunson & Josh Hart on The Roommates Show, Triple H recalled being a guest at the game.

"When I did it with Joel, no one told me, 'Don't go on the court.' We went to do it and he's like, 'Let's just do the crotch chop. Follow me.' He ran straight out on the court, I ran out on the court, and we're doing all this shit. When I came back, they're like, 'Why did you go on the court?' It was a shoe thing or something like that. They were all upset about it. [Joel] didn't care. He was like, 'Don't worry about it,'" recalled Triple H.
