IShowSpeed's fan encounter in Ecuador

As Speed was walking through the crowd, out of nowhere, a person came yelling:

“You is the best! You is the best!”

Then, things got weird. The guy hit the deck and started twitching—probably from too much excitement.

He kept chanting “You is the best” like a broken record, and then, boom, he started barking. Yep, barking.

To be fair, Speed’s known for barking when he’s hyped, so maybe this guy was just trying to match the energy.

Then, as if it couldn’t get any more chaotic, the guy tried to pull off a backflip. It flopped. That’s when Speed stepped up, nailed a backflip, and barked twice before walking off like nothing happened.

One bite in, and his face lit up like he had just discovered the meaning of life. He couldn’t contain his excitement, yelling:

“Thank you! That’s what the hell I’m talking about, Ecuador! ... That is a fried chicken wing! That is fried chicken right there!”
