John Stockton Dragged for Claims That Vaccinated Athletes Are 'Dropping Dead' Mid-Game

NBA Hall of Famer John Stockton drew criticism on Sunday — and had his season tickets to his alma mater’s games suspended — after he made wild, baseless claims about the effects of the COVID vaccine.

In an interview with The Spokesman-Review, a newspaper based in Spokane, Washington, Stockton revealed that his season tickets to his alma mater had been suspended because he refused to comply with the school’s masking policy. He said that, in the end, “they were going to have to either ask me to wear a mask or they were going to suspend my tickets.”

Stockton has been very vocal in his defiance of COVID safety measures, including masking and vaccinating. In the same interview, Stockton claimed that more than 100 professional athletes have died from a COVID vaccination.

“I think it’s highly recorded now, there’s 150 I believe now, it’s over 100 professional athletes dead — professional athletes, the prime of their life, dropping dead that are vaccinated, right on the pitch, right on the field, right on the court,” Stockton said.

He is spending too much time with his Nazi neighbors up there.

Can Karl Malone talk some sense into him?
