I mean, she knew what she was doing when she tagged him in that tweet, but good on him and good for the family.

She straight up asked him to pay for the funeral.

That strikes me as kind of underhanded on her part.

She put him on the spot to do something. It's his money and it's a nice thing to do, but it was almost impossible for him to NOT pay for some of it after she made it certain he would see it.

he easily could have ignored that. He probably has a few hundred people/bots tagging him at any given time

This morning on a local Houston sports show someone pointed out that she tried the same thing in 2018.

I don't know about you, but I had 2 grandfathers. They both passed away within roughly 5 years of each other too.

She could very well be completely full of shite, but Watt was under no obligation to help and offered to anyway.

Eh life goes on. Twitter isn’t real and if JJ never acknowledged it, nobody would care. JJ gets the booster publicity by doing this and the woman gets her lotto ticket coming true. She knew what she was doing and JJ knows what he’s doing.


Nonetheless great on JJ. I’m one of the people that doesn’t understand the dislike of him. Yeah he’s good at the PR game. He’s also a nice guy by all accounts.

975 talked about this. She scammed JJ, which sucks. She’s tweeted out the same thing in 2018.

So she tried again in 2022. And it worked it initially
