PHILADELPHIA - Reports of nasty confrontations -- and a few fistfights -- among raucous protesters have permeated the first three days of the Democratic National Convention in Philadelphia.

But, according to a Bernie Sanders delegate from Lancaster County, one that slipped under the radar earlier this week involved him, Sean Hannity and two of the Fox News host’s body guards at a Wawa in Center City.

Jonathan Paul Fox, of East Lampeter Township, said he had just come from dinner at McGillin’s Olde Ale House after the first convention day when he stopped by the Wawa at the intersection of Broad and Walnut streets at about 1 a.m.

An overtly friendly and charismatic guy, Fox said he walked up to Hannity when he saw the conservative commentator inside. Putting his hand “gently” on Hannity’s shoulder, he said, “My name’s Fox. I’d like my good name back from your channel.”

Fox said he was trying to be funny but the TV personality took it the wrong way. He said Hannity turned to him and told him to “get his hands off” him or he would “pulverize” him.

Then, with his bodyguards at his sides, Hannity was leaving when Fox said he yelled, “See ya, Lumpy.” (The “Lumpy” reference came after former “The Daily Show” host Jon Stewart returned to his late-night form last week, eviscerating Hannity and calling him “Lumpy’)

It appeared to get under Hannity’s skin when Fox yelled it, he said, because Hannity turned around and was furious. Fox said Hannity ushered him outside where Hannity started to put up his fists when a police officer walked by. The TV show host tried telling the officer that Fox was harassing him, but the officer just ignored him and kept walking, Fox said.

Fox said it died down after that and the two groups went their separate ways without incident.

“I didn’t mean to cause a confrontation,” Fox said. “I didn’t cause a confrontation.”

After separate reports about Hannity getting booed out of a Wawa the following morning, he tweeted, “LIE. One customer who seemed to be having a really rough night met me and my bodyguards, he shut up very fast. Lol.”

When asked for comment, a Fox News spokesperson directed LNP to Hannity's tweet, and a TV clip in which Hannity briefly mentioned he was not "kicked out" of Wawa.

Meanwhile, two others who were with Fox, his girlfriend Jean Bickmire and former district judge Wayne Hanson, confirmed Fox’s account.

“I’m from Boston, so I have the attitude of not going to cower and standing up for what is right,” Fox said. “Do you know how embarrassing it is to have this name associated with that F-A-U-X channel?”

Hanson said Fox was not being aggressive. Bickmire said Hannity “was definitely on an ego trip.”

Fox, a fervent Sanders supporter but who has not participated in any of the protests or silent sit-ins this week, said he doesn’t want the incident to take away attention from Hillary Clinton accepting the party’s presidential nomination tonight.
