Buffalo Bills running back LeSean McCoy learned the hard way this weekend that spoilers carry penalties. McCoy angered fans after he posted a reaction on Twitter and Instagram to a key moment in “Avengers: Endgame,” and is now facing backlash from an angry online mob.
McCoy wasn’t happy with a character’s death, and shared the details of that spoiler to flummoxed online users. In one video, he even proclaimed that he was “done with Avengers.” But now others are done with McCoy, including one man who started a petition to demand that the Bills fire McCoy — and have Twitter ban him as well.
On the other side of the world, Asia One and Tvbs reported that a Hong Kong man was beaten after exiting an “Endgame” screening and loudly sharing spoilers near the theater entrance.
Pop culture spoilers have been a hot topic for years, given the now-ubiquity of social media.
