Of course Dwight's looks staged like everything else he does.

guys, from the video description itself on youtube "I staged a fake marriage proposal at a Rockets game that pretty much everyone bought as real. When it was first posted by a fan on YouTube, it got over 11 million views." The account belongs to the guy who plays the big dumb bear. So yeah, it's clearly 100% fake. Both participants probably work for Houston's marketing department.

as someone who has spent some time working with game ops crew members, even if it was a zillion years ago, i can go ahead and tell you anytime a mascot hits someone in the face with a pie or seemingly gets into some kind of trouble with a "fan" the fan is always always always a team employee or family member of a team employee.

the name of the bear is Clutch, and he is not dumb
― Matt Armstrong, Monday, 13 January 2014 00:12 (ten years ago) link

― 龜, Monday, 13 January 2014 04:30 (ten years ago) link
it would be a huge pain in the ass to have to invite all your teammates every time you were doing something

This tune is inspired by the NBA and a specific player, Brandon Jennings. He’s a prima donna point guard. He went to Italy young, he didn’t go to college, he just went straight to European league and then he came back and he’s a real hot dog gunner. He had a relationship with a specific coach, his name is Scott Skiles, he’s a very bossy, my-way-or-the-highway-type coach. They butted horns. Skiles was also an ex-NBA player, and he was saying, ‘I’ve been there, I know what you’ve been doing, and I can tell you,’ and Jennings was like, ‘You’re not my mother, I’ve got a contract and I don’t need you to tell me what to do. I’m my own man.’

it kinda looks like maybe he thought someone was running to that spot? I mean that's the only explanation I can come up with, even charitably.
