FORMER Liverpool FC star Ryan Babel has been involved in a foul-mouthed fall-out... with TV character Spongebob Squarepants!
The Dutchman who now plays in Germany for Hoffenheim, revealed the bizarre story on his Twitter feed this week.
A kids’ party staged by Babel turned sour when a children’s entertainer dressed as Spongebob removed his face covering to light a cigarette, started blowing smoke in the children’s faces, then revealed he had recently been released from jail!
Babel revealed the chain of events on Twitter.
He began: “If you invite a character to a kid’s birthday party, you want to see that character be that character.
“Spongebob was taking his helmet off and was smoking a cigarette in front of the kids.
“Spongebob doesn’t take his face off on TV and show a black face underneath it.
“So, I got mad at Spongebob in front of the kids – and when I get mad, I get loud, I get rude.
“I said: ‘Spongebob! Put your helmet on and put the damn cigarettes out! You can’t smoke in front of the kids man, are you crazy?!”
But ‘Spongebob’ had a surprise in store for Babel.
“Here is the thing that made it bad,” said the winger. “Nobody told me that Spongebob was fresh out of jail.
“He was like: ‘EYY MAN..EFF YOU AND THESE UGLY ASS KIDS... I JUST GOT OUT AND I’M HERE 2 GET PAID...’”
Babel continued: “I’m such a sissy that when I heard ‘jail’ my wholeeeee attitude changed.
“I said: ‘Noo, noo, ur not listening – I didn’t say you CAN’T smoke. I just said don’t blow it in their faces.
“‘That’s all I’m saying, Spongebob. I mean, blow the smoke up or something – smoke... but just give the kids a chance 2 not have cancer, that’s it.’”
In response to a follower, who clearly found the episode rather amusing, Babel said: “Laugh at my pain!”
During his Anfield days, Babel got into trouble with his Twitter account for posting a mocked up photograph of referee Howard Webb wearing a Manchester United shirt.
And this week the Dutch international was forced to hit back at criticism from Hoffenheim team-mate Tom Starke.
Under fire for supposedly failing to help Hoffenheim in their bid to climb the Bundesliga table from their current position of ninth, Starke claimed that Babel, who is Hoffenheim’s second highest scorer in the league this season with three goals, has not been portraying a positive attitude.
But Babel told BILD: “I think it is not one player who loses a game. It’s a team that wins or loses matches.”
