The Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department's Twitter is the latest Las Vegas-based social media account to get into a little fun natured ribbing with an account from the city of a Vegas Golden Knights opponent.

This particular time the LVMPD account was minding its own business and cheering on the home team when the Washington D.C. Police Department decided to take a jab at them.

LVMPD had quite the clever response.

That's about the time D.C. police thought it'd be cool to use the Drake approach and send them an invoice.

Let's back up really quick. If you aren't into hip-hop or trending topics on social media you may not know how the invoice relates to rapper Drake.

Drake is currently in a rap battle, yes these exist, with a rapper Pusha T. At the end of Drake's diss record, yes these also exist, he threatened to send Pusha an invoice for the free publicity he had received. Pusha said to send it in and Drake tweeted him a copy of the form.

Caught up? Good.  

D.C. attempted to do the same but there was one small problem – a typo.

That's all it took for LVMPD to crush them in this jovial war of words.

The moral of the story, don't mess with Vegas or their Golden Knights!
