Gambler's Looooong Shot:Harassment soup stars Olympic Champ Gabby ThomasSocial media vids show the heckling pre- and post-raceGambling frenzy uncovers athlete abuse, study reveals
Got some dirt? We're diggin' it! Let's unveil the sordid tale of a bozo bettor who stalked three-time Olympic gold medalist Gabby Thomas like a creepy Kardashian stalker. Yep, you heard that right - our boy here was following poor Gabby - around the track - like a goddamn shadow, shouting insults left and right.
And guess who he was rootin' against? Yup, Gabby effin' Thomas. Why? To sabotage her performance and score a sweet parlay bet win, man! Now that's some next-level douchebaggery!
On June 2nd, a lowlife named "Mr 100k a Day" boldly boasted his dirty deeds over on X, posting vids of himself screaming obscenities at Gabby while she was prepping to race in the women's 100-meter dash. He called her a "choke artist" and aired some personal dirt - hinting at her white fiancé. Classy, huh?
But the nightmare didn't end there, no sir! Our guy came back for more after the race, following Gabby around the stadium and hurling insults even when she was signing autographs for kids. Yup, you heard that right, folks – a grown man harassing an Olympic champ in front of kiddies!
Gabby wasn't havin' it. "This grown ass man followed me around the track while I was taking pics and signing autographs for fans (mostly kids) shouting personal insults," she raged. "Nobody who enables him online is gross."
Ain't that the truth, Gabby! But where was our persistent parasite when Melissa Jefferson-Wooden won the race? MIA, that's where! Gabbs finished fourth, but we're guessing he's too classy to admit it was because of his heckling.
When a USA Today reporter hunted our dude down, he ducked like a roach, hiding behind a fake name and claimin' he lives in Puerto Rico. Klassy, eh?
Grand Slam Track ain't takin' this lying down. They're conductin' a full investigation and aimin' to take action to ban such jerks in the future.
But let's face it, folks – we live in a gamblin' nation these days, USA! And it's havin' a dark side that ain't pretty: abuse directed at athletes. A recent study found that one in three high-profile college athletes had received abusive messages from individuals with a "betting interest."
In 2019, former Babson College soccer player Addison Choi was sentenced to a year and a half behind bars for sendin' dirtbag messages to over 40 athletes, threatenin' 'em and all that fun stuff, just because he couldn't cover his losin' bets. And in 2021, Ben "Parlay" Patz was placed on probation for three years for doin' the exact same thing – harassin' players with threats after his wagers tanked.
So, folks, let's all take a moment to appreciate that Gabby, in spite of that creep stalkin' 'er, still finished fourth in the 100-meter dash at the Grand Slam Track event. And let's hope that Grand Slam Track, FanDuel, and other sports organizations are workin' hard to put a stop to these yahoo yellas leadin' athletes to trainwreck races! #NoMoreHarassmentInSports
