US Open kicks out two fans
Two fans at the Arther Ashe Stadium were kicked out after one of them was seen shaving off the other person’s head during an intense quarter-final match between Nick Kyrgios and Karen Khachanov. As the incident caught the attention of several in the stands, some social media users identified the person as a YouTuber, who is known for his pranks.
Following the bizarre incident, USTA’s Brendan McIntyre said (as quoted by AP), “When someone saw it, security went to the two individuals. They were escorted out of their seats and then off the grounds for disruption of play.” He concluded his remarks by adding, “There’s a first time for anything.” This is not the first time that the famous YouTuber is getting a haircut at a sporting event, as he was also once seen during an NCAA match as seen in the video below.
