UFC star Paddy Pimblett, known for his exuberant personality both inside and outside the octagon, found himself in a precarious situation during a Premier League match between Liverpool and Watford. The incident, which took place at Vicarage Road, saw Pimblett being escorted out of the stadium after his enthusiastic celebrations drew unwanted attention.
Paddy Pimblett’s Crazy Story About Almost Getting Murdered
Pimblett, a die-hard Liverpool fan, was gifted tickets to the match by Watford’s former goalkeeper, Ben Foster. The tickets placed him in the Watford supporters’ section, and Foster had advised Pimblett to keep a low profile and avoid celebrating Liverpool’s goals to prevent any potential trouble. However, Pimblett’s passion for his team got the better of him.
As Liverpool scored, Pimblett couldn’t contain his excitement and jumped up to celebrate. This behavior quickly caught the attention of a steward, who warned him that his actions could put him in danger. Despite the warning, Pimblett continued to celebrate, leading to his eventual ejection from the stadium.
Ben Foster’s Warning and Aftermath
Ben Foster, who shared the story on his podcast “The Fozcast,” recounted how he had cautioned Pimblett about the risks of celebrating in the Watford section. Foster mentioned that a steward approached Pimblett and his friends, stating, “We are going to have to ask you to leave, you’ll get murdered if you stay in here doing that”. Following his ejection, Pimblett took to Instagram to thank Foster for the tickets and express his disdain for Watford, albeit in colorful language.
