Tennessee State Representative Jeremy Faison was forced to issue an apology after he was caught on tape throwing a tantrum and trying to pants a referee while confronting him over a technical foul.

The incident occurred during a match between the Providence Academy Knights and Lakeway Christian Academy Lions in Johnson City, Tenn. on January 4th, 2022. Faison, who is the third-highest ranking Republican in the state's House of Representatives can be seen initially yelling at the ref and apparently threatening to fight him, then trying to pull his pants down as he's being kicked out.

This act would've been embarrassing enough, but hilariously, Faison doesn't even come close to succeeding, so the whole thing just starts to look even more sad and immature.
