James River Rumble - Machek and Francis - Ike Live #65-3
Monday Aug 07, 2017
Monday Aug 07, 2017
There was quite a stir at about a viseo posted on social media by Charlie Machek (boat #1) of Andy Francis (boat #7), which appeared to show Francis encroaching on Machek's water. The video received a lot of attention and was dubbed "The James River Rumble". It was popular enough, in fact, that Iaconelli parodied the video with This is Not the Water You Own, BRO! James River Rumble, which was, in fact, filmed with a potato.
Ike Live welcomes Andy Francis and Charlie Machek to hear both sides of the story. You decide who was right, wrong, or if you're indifferent. In either case, confrontations happen in bass fishing tournaments, and everyone agrees, it's not what the sport is all about.
