What would you do if someone who looked like an NBA superstar came up as you are perusing the aisles of Target and hit you with a crazy step back?
The comedian Gerald Huston — who, according to his Facebook, lives in Kansas City, Missouri — went and found out.
Huston was dressed like James Harden, beard and all, when he went around jumping in front of innocent Target shoppers. (As someone who is a Target faithful herself, I can’t imagine what I would do if I were in a daze in the candle aisle, and someone who I thought was Harden came up and faked me out like he was about to drop a step-back three on me).
The people laugh, someone even curses. There is also a dad who is clearly over it –but the entire video is truly hilarious.
The video made its way around on #NBATwitter this week, even though the post on Huston’s Instagram is from February. WE. ARE. DYING. The shoe-squeaks really get us rolling.
He’s impersonated Harden in Target before, in January. And, according to the Instagram post, the manager actually kicked him out for doing so!
While we have you here talking about Harden and Target, we should remind you that for Christmas 2018, the reigning MVP hooked up 70 kids in a Pearland, Texas store with loaded up gift cards for a personal shopping spree.
Maybe Harden should target Target as his next sponsorship?
