Get back! Ludacris stuns fans by flexing oversized muscles, giant shoes, and a massive watch while taking the mound for the first pitch at the Atlanta Braves game.
On Wednesday night (Sept. 4), the Atlanta Braves gave Luda the star treatment with a bobblehead night and a ceremonial first pitch that had everyone buzzing. The first 15,000 fans at Truist Park scored a bobblehead of the Grammy-winning rapper rocking jeans, a throwback Hank Aaron No. 44 jersey, and holding a mic.
But the real highlight? The event was a full-on tribute to the Atlanta icon, with a nod to his “Get Back” video directed by Spike Jonze, where Luda’s pumped-up arms and swagger took center stage as he stepped up to the mound and threw a pitch.

In related news, the rapper, currently on tour, recently shared that he’s feeling on top of the world after enjoying some glacier water, despite fans’ concerns.
Last week, the ‘Act A Fool’ rapper took to social media to address fans’ worries after a video surfaced of him drinking Alaskan glacier water, which had everyone buzzing with concern.
“For everybody asking me how that glacier water really tasted,” the Grammy Award-winning rapper began. “When I tell y’all I am a water snob, it was the best tasting water I’ve ever had in my life and as I drank it I felt like every cell in my human body was being hydrated and rejuvenated at the same damn time… Listen man, I’m here. I feel like Superman.”
In the original clip, Luda explained his recent stunt: “Half of the world’s glaciers are here in Alaska. I couldn’t come here and just have a show. You know I got a bucket list — or as I like to call it the f— it list — I’ve never tasted fresh glacial water in my life and this is a first. Here we go,’ he said before taking a sip. The video ended with a dramatic ‘Oh my God’ as Luda left fans on edge of their seats.
“Be careful with glacier water!” one user wrote in the comments. “Even though it looks fresh and clean, it’s often full of bacteria, parasites, and viruses… Microorganisms you definitely don’t want in your system.. It can make you extremely sick. Make sure to boil it first to stay safe!”
Another joked, “Ur gonna be the reason we get into another pandemic.”
