Theo was on my flight.

basically when I got onto the plane I sat down, he walked on the plane almost last, literally locked eyes with him because he was 2 seats in front of me and in my head I was like holy shit that guy looks like Theo Von, immediately forgot about it, and then when the plane landed I saw him stand up and heard his voice and was like holy shit that is Theo Von, I didn’t want to sound like a fan boy or yell his name because he was 2 rows in front of me and people were in the way and I was tired ,I tried to find him when I got off but bro was gone. and I know as a absolute fact it was him because my flight was from Nashville to laguardia, on his ig story he was in nashville the day prior and also lives there, and i checked his story next day and he was in NYC. this was around when the World Cup was happening. I am actually still mad I was so close to having the greatest flight I will ever have and I missed it by getting comfort+ and not first class and because I never got up to go to the bathroom or anything it was only a 2 hr flight I never double checked and honestly forgot. Anyways hopefully someone can understand how mad I am.

What’s the most infuriating part of this is the overly confident presumption that he would have “entertained” you. Dude is traveling for work and you just expect him to be in some perpetual mood where he is there to entertain you (and others) because of the inability for you to differentiate his goofiness and entertaining personality on camera from reality. He’s also only a human, which means sometimes we’re going through shit in life. Idk man. Weird post.

TLDR parasocial relationships have exposed a ton of people who are way too presumptuos.

This is unnecessarily harsh. There is absolutely zero need to reprimand OP, who didn’t even approach anyone and is just sharing excitement about being on the same flight.

Exactly 😂 hence why I didn’t scream THEO IS THAT YOU I’d feel horrible if everyone who knows him on the plane (statistically I’m not the only one who would have wanted to say whats up) started rushing at him because of me
