Johnny Manziel has finally responded to accusations that he and his entourage beat down an adoring fan.
Manziel and his “entourage” were accused of assaulting a man named Chris Gonos who asked Manziel for a hug upon seeing him waiting for the elevator.
Manziel is disputing that story, and says that “Gonos came at him aggressively” and “very intoxicated.”
