College basketball now has a FONDUE SCANDAL. Which chain restaurant would you choose for your own scandal needs?

We talkin’ fondue scandals, y’all. On Tuesday morning, Yahoo Sports reported a dinner that allegedly took place at the Melting Pot — the famous fondue restaurant, where you can fondue anything from steak to fruit in a four-course setting. This dinner took place between a sports agent and 17-year-old Edrice “Bam” Adebayo, who played for Kentucky for the 2016-17 season before getting drafted by the Miami Heat.

Here’s an excerpt from the report:

At this dinner, according to expense reports and receipts that are part of evidence collected by the FBI and viewed by Yahoo Sports, were three guests of particular note: Stephen Pina, who worked as an agent for ASM Sports out of New Jersey; Edrice “Bam” Adebayo, then a 17-year-old who had just completed his junior year at Northside High School in Pinetown, North Carolina, and was in the midst of what scouts called a “standout” performance at the camp; and Eric Peartree, who was described in many media reports as Adebayo’s “mentor” or “guardian.”

Also:

Pina also submitted a report from earlier that same day saying he had a meal with Peartree and someone named “Shawn” at the now-closed Charlottesville Ruby Tuesday, indulging in shrimp fondue, a hickory pork chop, sweet tea and Corona.

Fondue twice in one day!
