New Jersey governor Chris Christie make headlines at a baseball game again, taking his show to Wrigley Field.
New Jersey governor Chris Christie was at the Chicago Cubs game against the Milwaukee Brewers on Sunday. Needless to say, it went just as well as his last appearance to see the New York Mets.
Christie was at the game to visit his son who works for the Brewers, according to the New York Post.
During the game he got into a confrontation with Cubs fan, Brad Joseph. Joseph said the governor made contact with his knee and asked if he wanted to “start something.”
“When he initially was going up the stairs I yelled his name. He was already quite a bit past me, and 30 feet away I yelled his name and told him that he sucked,” Joseph told Ben Hutchison of WISN. “I called him a hypocrite because I thought it needed to be said. He then turned around and walked all the way back towards me and got up in my face for what seemed like a long time, but was probably only about 30 seconds or a minute.”
Joseph added that the governor yelled at him and asked him ”Why don’t you have another beer?” Christie then told Joseph that he’s a big shot.
This is the second time that Christie has made headlines at a game. Earlier this month he was booed at a New York Mets game after he caught a foul ball.
The Cubs won on Sunday, 4-2, but it was Chris Christie that ultimately lost.
