LeBron James Booed On Jumbotron During Super Bowl

Fans didn't take kindly to LeBron's appearance on the big screen at Super Bowl

LeBron James is used to being booed at arenas around the NBA. 

On Sunday, he experienced the same while attending the Super Bowl between the Philadelphia Eagles and Kansas City Chiefs. When he was shown on the Jumbotron during the game, the fans in Arizona began to boo. 

James, who played for the Miami Heat from 2010-14, is no stranger to criticism, took the ribbing with ease. He responded by putting an imaginary crown on his head. The gesture was reference to his nickname of "King James." 

The Chiefs won the game in one of the most exciting Super Bowls in history. They won a late field goal to capture a 38-35 victory. It was their second championship in four appearances. The Chiefs have played in three of the last four Super Bowls, only losing two years ago to Tom Brady and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
