Prankster showers Sepp Blatter with fake dollar bills at Fifa press conference

Brodkin is known for his pranks and interrupted Kanye West's Glastonbury set last month and tried to join the England squad as they boarded the plane for the 2014 World Cup in Brazil

 

The Fifa president Sepp Blatter, was forced to walked out of a press conference after being showered with fake dollar bills by the British comedian, Lee Nelson.

Nelson, whose real name is Simon Brodkin, illegally gained entry to the Fifa headquarters in Zurich and poured dozens of fake banknotes over the stage around where Blatter was seated after announcing himself as a North Korean World Cup delegate.

“This is nothing to do with football … we need to clean here first,” Blatter said before leaving the stage while the money was cleared and Nelson was ejected from the building.
