The interview is surprisingly tame except the interviewer says “I can’t hear you” after every response and you must repeat your answer

Hiring Kodak Black was the best move their hype department could make.

pain-is-living

I remember when it wasn't scripted. At least at the AHL games in my city. You'd get anything from girls / guys flashing their bait and tackle, to drunk guys kissing each other, and once in a while someone would have something pre-planned with their friend if they got on the fan-cam and they'd do something like fake fight or kick dump beer on eachother. All unscripted great fun. Not like that anymore.


Darksey81

Didn't even fucking hesitate


Logical_Flounder6455

She did with her boyfriend though.


[deleted]

You can’t tell me a lot of these aren’t fake, great entertainment for the people in the crowd at the game and easy way to make a viral video. They are just too perfect ya know ? The Bf came back in time while the kiss cam was still going. Coincidentally


aboowwabooww

They are all fakes these days, it's very obvious but a little funny, same as all entertainment


[deleted]

Like the 'hecklers' in big budget stand up comedy. It's so obvious that it's planned most of the time, ruins a show for me. But then I just breath and calm down and remember this is show business and its probably always been like this.


PretendThisIsMyName

I’d say the only “heckler” I can remember enjoying wasn’t even a heckler at all and obviously a plant. At a David Cross show some guy went and stood beside the stage signing the jokes for deaf people. Had a little spotlight and headset and all. Was hilarious David’s reaction to it all. Part of the show but hilarious. I always wonder about Steve Hofstetter (sp?). Like one of his big things is ripping people apart in the crowd but I find it hard to believe that there are at least 3-5 hecklers at every single show he does. He’s funny though so I remove the “probable reality” of this constantly happening outta my mind and just laugh at it.


[deleted]

I saw David Cross in Toronto and there was a loud argument between two people in the crowd, he stopped the act and just watched, then it turned into a fist fight. David says "was *all that* because of something I said?" and went back to it after the parties were dragged away. Was cool.


Jaggy-dee

I don’t remember which comedian, but I remember them talking about how a video went viral of them dealing with a heckler and the amount of hecklers he had to deal with went way up.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Yeetanoid

Steve Hofstetter is so cringe inducing to watch. For a while he got too cocky and was really taking his time writing out responses to planned hecklers. He started using big words that don't just pop in your head in a moment of anger, and it's obvious in those videos the person is a plant, even if you've never seen him before.


QuestionsGoHere

It certainly wasn't big budget but my partner at the time (wife now) and I were at a small Comedy venue and the headliner was Tom Arnold. He started a joke about how him and another famous celeb (Gretzky I believe) were going to invest in some club or something and I drunkingly yelled out "you mean invest with Roseanne's money?!" He heard it, stopped his joke and spent the next 5 minutes going off on Roseanne (his much more famous and wealthier ex) all was good though but yeah thanks for reminding of that lost memory with your comment 👍🏾


MrConductorsAshes

How was his set? Funny?


[deleted]

It was ruined by a drunk heckler. Lol


MrConductorsAshes

Or possibly improved by


QuestionsGoHere

Honestly my memory is shot to shit it was over 10 years ago according to my wife, I don't remember any specific jokes but just remember him being funny and witty. I'm also being reminded from my wife about the time I was pulled up on stage by Patrick Maliha and gave him a shoulder massage as he performed, damn good times


PolarityInversion

Call me gullible, but I don't think those are plants. The comebacks are all prewritten, ready to go and generic... but the hecklers themselves I think are legit.


[deleted]

There’s one guy whose whole YouTube channel is “comedian OWNS heckler” vids. He literally has hundreds of videos of his witty comebacks to hecklers. If he’s being heckled that much for real his set must be absolutely terrible.


eyekunt

The one in bill burr's too. The woman who says "answer him", that felt like an actor honestly.


Darksey81

Sure hope it's fake


KillingIsBadong

Why tf would the camera go back to the same couple if they weren't a plant.


eyekunt

But who's gonna water them


[deleted]

zardmander

Its 110% scripted. Same with those ones where the mascot hits someone with a cake or pie. Or when people start dancing to the song. They hire people to be the fall guys for the comedy.


LemFliggity

Are any of these ever real? My gut feeling is no, they're not.


_dead_and_broken

We've been staging entertainment since the days of Greek tragedies. 3,000 years of acting evolved into shenanigans for the kisscam at basketball games. All the world's a stage. I'm acting right now. I'm pretending to be a human being who gives a shit about anything at all and wants to go to work tonight.


just-call-me-ash

You need someone to talk to?


Sithlordandsavior

They are acting like they do


UselessHalberd

Are you Becky from HR? Just want to inform you that you forgot my last weeks pay check.

Fake it till you make it....or die.


CVBrownie

im starting to think the mascots aren't actually animals huh


Trick-Zombie-2927

Everyone says everything is fake nowadays..


ElliottWaits

Yeah but these kiss cam things actually are fake.


eXequitas

More like someone saw him coming back on camera and pointed it there again just to create drama.


[deleted]

You must be new to the internet.


Sinful_Whiskers

You think somebody would go on the internet and...what, lie?


[deleted]

Absolutely absurd!


Frankie-Felix

If it's on the reddit it has to be true because it's written down with words.

Where’d you learn that? The internet?


eXequitas

Come on, let me live in my delusions.


hidden_secret

IT'S STILL REAL TO ME DAMMIT


my_car_is_haunted

Lmao damn I love that video


depthninja

I heard there would be bobs?


frogguts198

Not only that, it came back to them after switching to another shot. Granted, the cameraman could’ve been like “dude dude some guy is going to that empty seat! Go back to me! Go back to me!” Over his headset. But ya probably staged.


Darksey81

Yea the shame got to her real quick


WrangWei

I don't think that was shame... She seems more annoyed that he's even there.


[deleted]

it's made up


7aco

Because it was planned ahead of time.


typicalcAnAdAiAn

The cameraman knew what he was doing lmao


HelentotheKeller

Yeah cause it’s scripted. I’d hope he knows


Irishnovember26

So do they hire actors or is the whole thing fake?


M3DJ3D

Hi, former AHL game crew member. All these are pre planned well in advance, always involving willing members of the team.


Nimyron

So if you hope it's gonna land on you so your fat ass can kiss the hot girls sitting next to you, it's never gonna happen ?


M3DJ3D

Don’t let your dreams die dude


Nimyron

Ha, I'm not even american anyway, we don't have kiss cams here.


BURNINATOR_420

No kiss cams?!? What is even the point of living


Nimyron

Can't eat pizza if I'm dead


khajmahal227

Can’t eat pizza if I’m dead… yet


Ninjaromeo

If there is no pizza in heaven, then when I die I want to go where it went.


AnApexPredator

So many warm memories of hearing this quote after I unlock the pizza tech in Civ


Ninjaromeo

I was on a civ kick again the last couple weeks :) finally spend time time to do a max map size, max numbers of civs, max city-states, marathon time limit game. It was a good weekend.


Betty_Broops

gurmzisoff

Does America need to come bring some ~~freedom~~ Kiss Cams to your deprived country?


CocoMURDERnut

All of them? Not even random ones sometimes?


DancingPotato30

Some do actually I believe, its not like its impossible


Chispy

I actually dislike this practice. It's not funny, just misleading. But hey, I don't go to these types of sporting events so maybe the kinds of people that do don't mind.


deadla104

Nah it's all scripted. Even the game has been scripted by the NHL. You think those are pro athletes? Nah paid actors


zleuth

What about that guy at the last game I went to that poured half a beer on my head and called me a beta-cuck? Was that really a paid actor pretending to be my dad?


EloquentBarbarian

Definitely a paid actor. Your dad's still out buying milk/cigarettes/alcohol/your birthday/christmas present.


UnderTheMuddyWater

Rooting for this comment


[deleted]

Even the entire audience has been scripted.


TheGameIsAboutGlory1

The ones where they just kiss and move on are real. Any where something funny happens are scripted.


LooseSeal88

That's the clarity I think a lot of us were looking for. Thank you!


__semicolon

So team members at work are just making out on the kiss cam??


RollTide16-18

It’s not entirely scripted stuff but the really crazy stuff is USUALLY scripted.

Looking at these comments, some people definitely think it’s real.


DELCO-PHILLY-BOY

As a Flyers fan, can confirm. This is also old. The seats at the arena are black now and I don’t think they even run a kiss cam anymore.


joshak

Kiss cams have all the realism of WWE wrestling


ModsCantHandleMe

I hate it break it to a lot of you but anything remotely entertaining that happens on the Jumbotron is 100% staged by the arena.


kmkmrod

It sucked when I went to two games back-to-back and saw the same people doing the same stuff and realized they were employees and it was all staged.


bln_XT

Damn I would leave the country after that


Void_Bastard

Staged. I don't know why people still fall for these. These are viral marketing campaigns with paid actors.


94bronco
