My first thought was someone said they’d give him extra money if he tried to deliver it to one of the players on the court. But he apparently wandered around the arena for 10 minutes afterwards before delivering it so who knows.

He probably just got there faster than expected and had to just kill time until the food got properly cold for delivery.

Wouldn’t he need a ticket to get in?

One would think. But I could see someone letting him in to make a delivery, even if they weren’t supposed to.

Fans that go onto fields or courts can catch trespassing charges pretty easily, it would be surprising if a big company like Uber came up with an idea that involved a potential charge, but who knows stranger things have happened.

Uber is sketchy as fuck. Back when it first got going, it wasn’t legal to pick people up at PIT airport. There’s a special taxes permit that transports have to pay to do it and it was way too much for Uber to get one for every car. So instead they told their drivers to do it anyway and just try to stay on the downlow. If the driver got busted, Uber claimed they would take care of it. Who knows if they actually would.
They did shut like this in pretty much every city - break whatever laws are inconvenient until they’re so culturally ingrained that public outcry forces change to accommodate them.
This doesn’t even get into all the shit with manipulating their app.
