Elon Musk was criticized by the community, calling for Twitter to be brought back when he appeared in the stands at a game tournament final.
“Bring Twitter back,” the crowd shouted as Musk appeared on the live broadcast of the Valorant eSports World Championship final over the weekend.
According to Insider , Musk was taking his son to the game in Los Angeles at the time. He stood clapping his hands just as the camera turned towards him. However, the crowd was not happy with this appearance and voices from the stands began to rise.
The Musk image appears for about 4 seconds, then is replaced by the game’s screen. However, the boos did not stop, prompting the live commentator to ask the audience to focus on the match.
