What started off as harmless, lighthearted conversation quickly turned into a full-blown controversy.
Fans of Munchkin who felt Goldberg had insulted their cherished Lollipop Guild went on social media to demand that SAG punish her.
Amid mounting demands for justice, the hashtag #ProtectTheLollipopGuild became viral throughout the globe.
As the number of concerned munchkin fans continued to rise, SAG called an emergency board meeting.
There was a pivotal moment when the guild had to decide whether to support the Lollipop Guild and its loyal members or Whoopi Goldberg, a successful actress and symbol in the business.
