Overview
- Starkville police arrested 20-year-old Patrick McClintock on Nov. 10 on a disturbing-the-peace charge connected to a filmed encounter with Barstool Sports founder Dave Portnoy.
- A video shows an individual yelling an antisemitic slur and throwing coins toward Portnoy during a One Bite pizza review outside Boardtown Pizza & Pints in Starkville.
- After reviewing the clip, police issued a warrant; McClintock was processed, photographed, and released on a $2,500 bond.
- Authorities said offensive words alone are protected but disruptive conduct is not, and they are assessing whether bias enhancements apply.
- Mississippi State identified McClintock as a junior, and a university spokesperson said he withdrew on Monday as Portnoy posted the full review and spoke about experiencing daily antisemitism.
