Stephen A. Smith had a glorious response to turkey vulture crashing into his office
Worth the wait.
It was almost too perfect.
Of all the offices at ESPN’s Bristol headquarters for a turkey vulture to crash into, it chose the office of notable hot-take specialist Stephen A. Smith. Adam Schefter, who is in Arizona for the NFL owners meetings and can apparently be in two places at once, shared photos of the damage done to the window.
Though the turkey vulture appeared to survive the crash, it left a gnarly hole in the glass. And Twitter joked that this act of nature was retribution for all of those fiery Stephen A. takes we’ve been subjected to over the years.
We just hadn’t heard from Stephen A. Smith himself … until now. And it was worth the wait.
Smith took to Twitter and shared a video reaction to the turkey vulture crash. Smith insisted that the turkey vulture didn’t attack his office out of spiteful energy or even point out that birds often mistake office windows for open space to fly through. Nah, the turkey vulture flew through the pane-glass window because it missed Stephen A.
This was vintage Stephen A. Smith.
Smith, despite being on a million ESPN programs for roughly 23 hours a day, is based out of New York and rarely appears at the Bristol office.
The turkey vulture must have been calling dibs on the empty office.
