Mitt Romney heckles Russell Westbrook, and Twitter lost its mind
What do you get when Mitt Romney joins 20,000 Mormons in an arena? A family reunion.
Utah senate candidate and former Presidential candidate Mitt Romney was on hand in Utah for the Jazz' Game 4 outing against the Oklahoma City Thunder Monday night.
Romney making the rounds in Utah isn't a surprise. A D.C. insider, he's trying to show the citizens of his native land that they should vote for him come November.
It's what Romney did while on hand inside Vivint Smart Home Arena that threw many for a loop. After reigning NBA MVP Russell Westbrook picked up his fourth foul of the first half late in the second quarter, Romney could be seen heckling the OKC star in the best possible way from his courtside seat.
It's about the best thing we've seen thus far in the NBA Playoffs.

It goes without saying that Twitter had some amazing reactions to Romney's troll job.
Some included mocking Russ in the same manner as Romney did.

Others weren't too kind to Romney himself.

Utah ended up winning Game 4 going away and now boasts a 3-1 series lead. We're just waiting for inevitable Jazz-Rockets Round 2 matchup with Romney mocking one James Harden. Because, why the heck not?
Like they say in Utah, "git her done." Okay, maybe not.
