Warriors fan explains how he snuck courtside for 29 games

A Golden State Warriors fan managed to scam his way into courtside seats for multiple regular-season games at Oracle Arena this year and documented it all in a YouTube video.

Trevor Laub was able to execute his scheme using the Warriors' $100 monthly "In The Building Pass," which allows fans to enter the arena for every home game but doesn't include a seat.

Laub explained in his video he used the program Adobe After Effects to digitally alter his "In The Building Pass" to look like a courtside ticket. His plan apparently went off without a hitch, as he sat courtside for 29 games, even getting to meet "Black Panther" director Ryan Coogler and Rev. Jesse Jackson at one point.

In his video description, Laub includes an apology to the Warriors and asks that they not press charges. He also teases a second video of him sneaking into the NBA playoffs.
