Golden State Warriors point guard Stephen Curry may be a superstar, but he has been and remains one of the most people-friendly players the NBA has to offer.
In fact, he has gone out of his way to reach out to fans for much of his career with various twitter contests called #SC30 (something most players don’t do), and he’s certainly not shy about signing autographs when the timing is right.
Curry does have limits when it comes to granting your wishes, though, and here’s one extreme example:
PSA. Noticeably following my family’s car on the road for nearly 30 miles & tailing me the whole way is not the best way to get an autograph

Unfortunately, some are just a tad more out there than others and don’t understand the concept of boundaries or the ability to recognize the fact that they are being crazy. Curry is quite possibly the most popular player in the league right now, so it’s understandable that people will go out of their way to interact with him in some way (and he more than likely understands this as well). The story told above, though? That’s clearly beyond out of line and unacceptable behavior (tailgaiting alone is an illegal act in most states) by any standards.
