Metta World Peace May Host Barbecue in OKC

Anyone that busied themselves Monday night with things other than Metta World Peace’s Twitter feed missed out. One day after sending out a picture of himself in a Knicks hat, the New York native declared his intent to either host a barbecue or go to a club in Oklahoma City on Friday.

MWP said the barbecue will be “fan friendly” and committed to tell beer jokes. Then – either realizing clubs rarely host barbecues or talking about a different event – he uninvited all boring people, and possibly proposed a wet t-shirt contest.

Much is uncertain: whether this was the work of a hacker, whether Post-Artest is actually going to be in OKC to begin the weekend, or if anyone can vouch for the quality of his beer jokes.

The Artist Formerly Known as Ron-Ron has a history of lighthearted interactions with fans – recently, anyway – so an event like this is not out of the question. If it does go down, though, one thing is certain: James Harden will not be attending.
