Elon Musk Ripped After Quietly Deleting Tweet Claiming Only '10%' Of Chappelle Crowd Was Booing Him
On Sunday night, Dave Chappelle surprised audience members at his show in San Francisco when he invited Elon Musk on stage to join him.
Musk was met with minutes of loud booing and jeering.
The incident was recorded and later posted to Twitter.
Elon Musk booed heavily after Dave Chappelle invited him onstage last night.
Dave Chappelle: “Tough road ahead sounds like.”
Elon Musk: “I know.”

Slowly, videos of the incident were removed and accounts seemingly suspended like the one below.
@CleoPat48937885 was the first to post the video and some crazy stuff went down.
\u201cSomeone posted a video of Elon Musk getting aggressively booed in front of the friendliest possible audience (a Dave Chappelle show in San Francisco) and apparently \u201cSomething went wrong\u201d with their account\u201d— Victims of Capitalism Memorial Foundation (@Victims of Capitalism Memorial Foundation) 1670845429
The user later came back and claimed, "Elon didn't suspend me," but that still doesn't explain the other videos that were removed.
Of course, Musk and his remaining engineers couldn't take down the videos nearly as quickly as they were being downloaded and replicated.
In response to the circulating videos, Musk claimed something completely different.
In a now-deleted Tweet, Musk said:
"Technically, it was 90% cheers & 10% boos (except during quiet periods), but, still, that’s a lot of boos, which is a first for me in real life (frequent on Twitter)."
It’s almost as if I’ve offended SF’s unhinged leftists … but nahhh."
\u201cdeleted his self correction version too\u201d— pudding person (@pudding person) 1670892680
Musk also deleted his replacement Tweet which said:
"A major fight broke out in the audience just as I was about to talk, so didn't get to say much."
Though the tweets are gone, the memory remains and the twitterverse reacted.
\u201cElon's so upset this morning his latte is 90% coffee and 10% booze.\u201d— Brandy Bryant \ud83c\udff3\ufe0f\u200d\u26a7\ufe0f (@Brandy Bryant \ud83c\udff3\ufe0f\u200d\u26a7\ufe0f) 1670864093
90% cheers? Has he been testing NeuraLink on himself?

\u201cSo @ElonMusk claimed 90% of the crowd were cheering with 10% boos. Here\u2019s video proving it was pretty much everyone in the audience booing - booing that was so bad, @DaveChappelle scolded HIS OWN AUDIENCE in what appears to be a career-ending move.\n\nhttps://t.co/QWPnM5RJC1\u201d— Kiera (@Kiera) 1670885260
\u201c@elonmusk Remember when you got boo'd at Dave Chappelle's show, and you pretended it was only 10%, even though everyone there knew it was more like 90, and then you stood there awkwardly silent for what felt like ages while Dave desperately tried to salvage the situation?\n\nRemember that?\u201d— Elon Musk (@Elon Musk) 1671008741
\u201cIt was hilarious watching @elonmusk get booed at the #DaveChappelle event. Even funnier when Elon tried to claim it was \u201c90% cheers and 10% boos\u201d lmao he sounds more like #DonaldTrump everyday #ElonBooed #ElonMuskBooed #ElonMuskIsAFascist #ElonMuskIsaGiantTurd\u201d— David Pfeiffer \ud83c\uddfa\ud83c\uddf8 \ud83c\uddfa\ud83c\udde6 (@David Pfeiffer \ud83c\uddfa\ud83c\uddf8 \ud83c\uddfa\ud83c\udde6) 1670947727
\u201c@b_walk3 @UberFacts Elon Musk got called on stage by Dave Chappelle and recieved Hella boos and some cheers. He tried to say it was only the "woke" people who boo'd and the percentage was 90% cheers and 10% boos. This is wrong because Dave himself has even come out and said there were more boos\u201d— UberFacts (@UberFacts) 1670953498
\u201c@elonmusk @omnihedge "It was 90/10 I swear gaiz no matter what the video shows or how many times the boos were recognized by Dave himself and I when it happened. The unhinged woke Left that paid to see self labeled TERF Dave Chappelle needs to be stahpped"\u201d— Elon Musk (@Elon Musk) 1670756297
\u201c@elonmusk @omnihedge my brother in Christ it was 90% boos lol\n\nI don't know any leftists that would PAY MONEY to see the transphobic Dave Chappelle lol\u201d— Elon Musk (@Elon Musk) 1670756297
\u201cTechnically it is 100% funny that you you @elonmusk think it was 90% cheers. Those boos made our day 100% better. Thanks @DaveChappelle much appreciated.\u201d— rose aiello (@rose aiello) 1670863196
\u201cSorry Elon, bt that wasn't 90% good & 10% boo & Chappelle's audience, isn't filled w "woke" leftist. Face it, you've become a right-wing conspiracy theorist, who's destroyed Twitter. You're a fraud & ppl smell it!\nhttps://t.co/uaek9jNV2i\u201d— solaranoir #KindnessMatters #BLM #votingrights (@solaranoir #KindnessMatters #BLM #votingrights) 1670878448
\u201cBout' to hit 52 week low \ud83d\ude0290% cheers, huh? @elonmusk\u201d— Twatter 2.0 (@Twatter 2.0) 1670865395
\u201c@elonmusk @omnihedge And are these "90% cheers" in the room with us right now?\u201d— Elon Musk (@Elon Musk) 1670756297
It seems all of Musk's tweets involving the incident have been deleted with the exception of a possibly-related one that was posted the morning after.
\u201cThe woke mind virus is either defeated or nothing else matters\u201d— Elon Musk (@Elon Musk) 1670847932
The video, however, is still making the rounds.
