Heat Players Don't Applaud Behavior Of Woman Flashing Middle Finger At Joakim Noah

Wednesday's game between the Chicago Bulls and the Miami Heat was, if anything, fiery hot. With a slew of technical fouls--nine to be exact--two ejections and a lot of cursing, bumping and shoving. The game may have very well been one of the most heated games this season.

Yet, amidst all the physicality on court, one incident made the most buzz on sites and social media: a woman flipping the bird on Bulls' center, Joakim Noah's face.

It was the gesture, the proximity and the instance that made everything terribly wrong. Now, the flipping caught by a photographer on cam is making its rounds on the Internet.

At first, everyone was wondering who the aggressive fan was, up until her own daughter outed her, reports Sun-Sentinel.

Meet Filomena Tobias, a rich socialite from Palm Beach, Florida--the bird flipping Heat fan.

Phyllis, as her friends call her, flashed her middle finger right up on Noah's face as he was being ushered out of the court after being ejected from Game 2 of the Semifinals.

"We're humiliated," Victoria Racanati, daughter of Tobias, told Jose Lambiet of Gossip Extra.

The Miami Herald reports that Racanati and Tobias live in the family's $4.4 million-home at The Bears Club in Jupiter, just a few blocks away from NBA legend, Michael Jordan.

The 47-year old bird-flipping momma was a secretary before marrying a wealthy man. She has since had three divorces and had been in a middle of a controversy after his fourth husband was found dead in their house pool.

Amidst all the controversy surrounding her bird-flipping photo, Racanati says her mom is far from being apologetic. The daughter told The Sun-Sentinel that her mom advices the public to "get a life."

However, unlike Tobias, the Miami Heat players are sad the incident had to happen.

"We don't applaud it in a sense. Every team loves their fans to get involved. But when it gets to that point, it's not what we like to deal with....We ask our fans just to cheer for us, to boo them when they come here, but let's stay first-class around here in Miami," Dwayne Wade said as reported by The Miami Herald.

Chris Bosh noted though that the woman be given a second chance and that her courtside tickets should not be revoked.
