Theo Von thinks there’s a time and place for playing games, at a presidential inauguration isn’t one of them.
The popular comedian was one of many celebrities on hand to see Donald Trump sworn into office for the second time on Monday. Unfortunately, Von was the subject of one of the event’s more embarrassing moments. While taking in the festivities, Von’s chair broke, sending him crashing to the floor.

What looked like a simple accident at first may have actually been shenanigans on the part of YouTube stars Logan and Jake Paul who were sitting behind Von when his chair gave out.
Responding to the above post, Von claimed that the Paul brothers had fiddled with the chair, causing it to give at the worst possible time.
“Wasn’t an accident,” Von wrote. “Paul kids thought it was [funny] to mess with the chair. There’s a time and a place, ya know. L.”
Good thing they didn’t try messing with Conor McGregor’s seat on the bus.
