Gary elaborated on what he said, “Did you and your team donate thousands of dollars for my kids to have information in a chute box? Have you messaged someone and given thousands for information, and still can’t make it to camp? The Chute Box family is very strong.”
The accusations did not stop. Gary singled out Page’s jiu-jitsu instructor, accusing him of trying to buy information from one of Gary’s Brazilian friends. “Your little finger rat jiu-jitsu instructor gave money and you got nothing. They feed you on Sunday nights,” Gary declared, exuding confidence and determination.
