Los Angeles Clippers poke fun at Intuit Dome trespassers in hilarious schedule announcement video

As the Los Angeles Clippers prepared their new $2 billion arena in February, they had some unexpected, uninvited guests at the Intuit Dome.

In a viral TikTok video, two teenagers snuck into the active construction site in Inglewood, shot hoops and played with a fire extinguisher at the future home of the Clippers.

On Thursday, the Clippers poked fun at the situation with a video of their own.

In the team’s 2024-25 schedule announcement video, a group of teens appeared to sneak into a building near the Intuit Dome and operate a drone that captured video of the new arena.

The 2024-25 season is a year of change for the team, which will play in its own, non-shared arena for the first time since 1998-99. The Clippers are now sporting new uniforms that throw things back to the previous era and designed new nautical-themed logos.

The changes include a “modernized version of the classic Clippers script” on the jerseys, the NBA said in a release. (NBA)
