LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Travis Scott, known for his music, fashion, and creative prowess, recently appeared on 'The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon', where he addressed a viral incident that occurred during a Knicks game.

Fallon, discussing Scott's courtside experience, humorously recounted how a basketball hit Scott's drink, causing it to explode in a geyser-like fashion.

Unraveling the courtside basketball-drink collision

The conversation unfolded as Scott detailed the mishap, attributing it to the erratic nature of basketballs and the unexpected trajectory of the ball hitting his thumb, leading to the drink's eruption.

Travis Scott humorously recounted, "I was watching the Knicks game courtside, and I saw the ball getting closer and closer throughout the night. I thought, 'There's no way this thing is going to hit me.' But sure enough, here comes the basketball. Pow! It hit my thumb perfectly, and my drink just erupted like a geyser, drenching my friend nearby. It was crazy, man. I was really trying not to spill it further, so I just casually opened another can of Cacti."



 

Travis Scott's collaboration with Nike on 'Mac Attacks'

Transitioning from the Knicks incident, Fallon applauded Scott's creative endeavors, specifically highlighting his collaboration with Nike in designing the 'Mac Attacks' sneakers, created alongside tennis icon John McEnroe.

Scott shared his enthusiasm for the sneaker line and his unique approach to pitching innovative ideas to Nike.

Travis Scott expressed his excitement, "Designing these Nikes has been dope! Nike's an amazing company; they get me and are open to wild ideas. I always tell everyone, 'Throw out the wildest ideas; the dumbest question is the one not asked.' So, I pitched the reverse swoosh to them, and they were like, 'We'll figure it out maybe.' It's all about trying things and working together to make it happen."

The discussion ventured into Scott's involvement in designing an Audemars Piguet watch, showcasing his multifaceted creativity and his childhood fondness for shoes like the Jordan series.

Travis Scott elaborated, "It's been wild! Making an Audemars Piguet watch has been insane. As a kid, getting those Jordans from my parents meant everything. I had the Jordan 12s and 4s; my mom still keeps them. Shoes were a big deal for me back then."

Fallon congratulated Scott on the success of his album 'Utopia', celebrating its chart-topping performance, streaming accomplishments, and Grammy nomination for Best Rap Album.
