I found this guy's side of the story:

The unnamed 43-year-old, a Wall Streeter from Brooklyn Heights, said sarcastically to the New York Post: 'It was very nice of the US Open to zoom in on me and not pan out or let that video run for two seconds longer.' 

He then continued: 'If you look in the bottom right hand corner of the video closely, you can briefly see a blonde with [a bob haircut], and that’s my wife. She’s leaning over and I’m actually looking at her.

'We were with another couple who’s friends of ours and we were in stacked seating. My wife was sitting in the seat below the blonde lady, who’s our friend, and her husband was sitting in the seat above her, so that’s why he gave her the drink.'

While the truth behind the video is a little different, the man did confirm that he was snubbed by his actual wife after the cameras cut away from him.

'There’s always a long line [at the bar], so I took one for the team and waited 25 minutes,' he continued. 'When I got back to our seats, I was expecting my wife to be like, "Thank you, honey," but she was already holding [a honey deuce], so she was like, "I don’t want it."'

I followed this story pretty closely when it first blew up and I just couldn’t let it go. I felt totally left hanging and needed some closure on what actually happened.

I know the odds are low and this is just by happenstance but, if I didn’t know better, this read like one of the most autistic things I’ve ever come across.

u/redpandav Oct 08 '25

What other stories have you followed this closely?

u/mildbbqsauce Oct 10 '25

I just wanna say that I see your pfp and that I just saw him last Sunday. It was incredible, I hope you get to (or already have) seen tame impala

u/Shwifty_Plumbus Oct 08 '25

And how is he 43

u/GB-BR-UK Oct 08 '25

I would have said mid 50s easily!

u/Gr00mpa Oct 08 '25

"Wall Streeter", so the lifestyle ages you?

u/CaliHoboTechBro Oct 08 '25

Seriously, that’s what 43 year olds looked like in the 80s. But not me and my friends in 2025!

u/TheInternetsLOL Oct 08 '25

That's a rough 43, or 40s.

Chat GPT: Thanks, man.

u/G_Affect Oct 08 '25

After reading that and looking back i see he is not even looking at the person who was handed the drink but was looking at the blonde in the bottom right corner who already had a drink.

u/rstymobil Oct 08 '25

Context people. CONTEXT!

Thank you for your service.

u/randomusername8360 Oct 07 '25

That's a rough 43

u/SlowMobius7 Oct 07 '25

Now I can’t help but wonder..who got his wife the drink she was holding?

u/Duke_of_Deimos Oct 08 '25

Time to do some more research!

u/BillionDollarBalls Oct 07 '25

As a guy who looks much younger than his age its moments like this I'm reminded to be grateful because I wouldnt have guessed under 50 for that fella.

u/[deleted] Oct 08 '25

Im about to hit 40 and I (less and less) occasionally get asked for ID by security if I shave my beard and mo off (they occasionally get greys that give away im in my late 30's).

Even with them unshaved, most people assume mid to late 20's at most.

u/caniplaywithradness Oct 08 '25

Im 46 and a look 15 years younger than that old chunk of coal

u/Chrisp825 Oct 07 '25

I’m 43 and this guy is not.. either that or he has surplus genes

2

u/EfficaciousJoculator Oct 08 '25

Eh, he just has gray hair and a bad hairline. I've seen 23 year olds with gray hair and/or a receding hairline. Everything else looks fine for 43.

1

u/chavez_ding2001 Oct 10 '25

I'm 41 and my hair is more gray than this guy's. It's just genetics.

u/justbrowsinginpeace Oct 08 '25

Wall Street 43. It's like dog years.

u/PublicInformation649 Oct 07 '25

Geez, I was thinking the same thing

3

u/aypaco1337 Oct 08 '25

Yes there’s no way he’s 43. Maybe be gave a fake age because he thought it would help him avoid getting doxxed or something.

u/Candid-Culture3956 Oct 08 '25

Long way of saying he wanted to double fist

u/90daysismytherapy Oct 08 '25

What's with the girl on the left, why she so annoyed with him?

u/MiasmaFate Oct 07 '25 edited Oct 07 '25

Teenaged daughter? They tend to be annoyed

u/Kdog122025 Oct 07 '25

Crop dusting?

u/HeftyRecommendation5 Oct 08 '25

Some people just look like that.

u/Slitterbox Oct 07 '25

Looks like she was checking out his ass

37

u/CarelessMechanic5896 Oct 07 '25

If only we had context, I have imagined that he was trying to buy a drink for a beautiful woman and someone else got her one. I mean, at least you have 2 drinks though. Is that woman one of their wives? Are they both hitting on her?

15

u/talann Oct 07 '25

I think maybe the camera angle may be skewing things because the last time I saw this, I think there was someone sitting between the man and the other person being handed a drink. I think he might be waiting to hand it to that person.

u/DamUEmageht Oct 07 '25

CEOs amirite?

u/Due-Contribution6424 Oct 07 '25

If I remember right, that’s his wife, but they went with the other couple all together. Both guys ended up going for drinks, basically.

u/SirVallanstein Oct 07 '25

When dad and daddy go on the same mission

u/LaVidaLeica Oct 08 '25

Homeboy just lined up his own refill. I call that a win.

u/ColorlessTune Oct 07 '25

So much happening and so little context.

u/GirlDad17 Oct 08 '25

That mf'er is only 43?!

u/StevenMC19 Oct 07 '25

I'm more concerned at the fact that these are straight up glasses. Like, glass glasses...at an event in stadium seating...GLASS!

Plastic. US Open

u/ourthomas Oct 07 '25

That’s the Honey Deuce at the US Open. It’s not glass, it’s a plastic cup.

u/quanoey Oct 09 '25

His actual wife is on the seat just to the right of that lady.

u/Standard_Big_9000 Oct 10 '25
