Freeway Video
« on: November 16, 2009, 09:27:28 PM »
I was cruising the MU Scoop Wiki looking for the freeway interview video on youtube but it was taken down by the user. Any idea why? Is there another location to view it?

BTW: If the user who posted it is a scooper -- I'm not trying to call you out or anything for removing the video or anything, I'm sure there was a valid reason for doing it. Just wanted to watch the video.

The interview w/Freeway was .. not exactly the finest moment for humanity.

I'm guessing the user took it down because he and his friend acted like punks.

It would have been cool if they actually interviewed Freeway and not bashed him the whole time.

+1...I was pretty upset after watching that video. It was just a complete shame.

freeway cornered me a few months ago late at night. i was just chillin outside and he was...overbearing, to say the least. dude was definitely living up to his legend, but was just too much, even for 3 a.m. After having an interaction w/Freeway, I can see why the user took down that video. W/o going into details, I'll say that I'm hesitant to applaud him too much b/c my encounter was just awkward/weird as hell and makes me uncomfortable

Ahh i see... thanks. I was asked by some friends the other day about said video and I had forgotten the content. Didn't know it was that big of a deal.

The video was pretty unflattering. I'm not offended/put-off by much, but that "interview" was in no way entertaining.

Yes.

Look, if your cup of tea is to enjoy watching those who make fun of cognitively disabled individuals, then I suppose you could find lots of weirdo stuff out there in youtube land.

You could stand in the parking lot at St. Ben's when the homeless wait in line for a warm meal too.  There are lots of folks there who are in Freeway's mental league.  Funny stuff, I'm sure.

I was kinda miffed that during 'Jump Around' at the Grambling game Freeway was doing his patented "slap your hand away dance" and all they showed was Rick Smith (who, ironically was sitting about 15-20 rows in front of him).

But the rule should be to show Freeway dancing when he's there.  Not to laugh at him, just to see his face and how much he enjoys it.

Or you could have a laugh at this (which I'm pretty sure was outed as a hoax)...so I'm probably not going to the worst hell, just a lesser degree of it.

Oh, I know.  I'm just glad that I waited until after work...a friend sent it to me with the heading "I'm a terrible person"

I'm pretty sure her condition has nothing to do with a flu shot, it was the anti-vaccination public interest group that ran with it.  I've read/heard that if she did have dystonia, she wouldn't be acting like that and it's a psychological disease at worst (not dystonia, but what she actually has), and that it's probably being faked by her since people never try to make an end-run to get famous (ex:  that crazy balloon kid Falcon and his parents).

And it was produced by Inside Edition...

EDIT:  I could be wrong, and it's obvious I have no education in the medical field whatsoever.
