Ben & Jen's Explosive Public Showdown!

A Saturday Basketball Game Suddenly Snowballed When Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner Furiously Erupted in Front of Their 5-year-old!
 

TALK about personal fouls. Acrimonious exes Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner were a courtside catastrophe at son Samuel’s basketball game on Feb. 3 at L.A.’s Barrington Recreation Center.

Perhaps used to the commotion, the sporty youngster occupied himself at the Mister Softee ice cream truck when his 45-year-old parents exploded into a seething argument — and it would take more than frozen treats to help them keep their cool.

“Ben and Jen were fighting and there were a lot of people around, mostly other parents,” squeals Star’s witness. “They tried to keep it under control but couldn’t stop hissing at each other in hushed tones. It was hard to hear what they were arguing about. Jen was upset, and Ben wasn’t happy either.”
