The kiss cam is one of the major highlights during sporting events. While spectators wait for the games to begin and during half-time breaks, discovering who gets featured on the Jumbotron can add variety to the otherwise monotonous downtime. Many of these kiss cam pair-ups are touching, although most of them are simply hilarious, especially when unlikely pairs are pinpointed among the crowd. Who can forget those popular kiss cam couples – and kiss cam fails – that are regularly featured on social media? What about those funny instances when even popular athletes found themselves to be victims of the teasing kiss cam?
If you are an avid sports fan, you already know that getting featured on the ever famous–or infamous–kiss cam is always a possibility. From regular people to high profile celebrities, the kiss cam is a notorious expert in finding its victims–even Tom Hanks and LeBron James became previous victims of the giant, prying monitor.
Finding yourself the focus of the kiss cam while watching a game can be too embarrassing, especially when you don’t want to be highlighted like that. Below are several instances when game spectators found themselves the unexpected highlights of the probing kiss cam.
An unexpected kiss cam is too embarrassing, especially when it occurs during the most inconvenient situations. One girl busily eats her pizza and ignores the kiss cam while the girl beside her simply resorts to waving for the jumbotron. Well, maybe it’s because they aren’t even a couple and they may not know each other, as well.
Nonetheless, the operator can sometimes have a dark sense of humor as when he zooms in on someone who’s obviously alone. The poor guy, who finds himself on the jumbotron’s screen, with no one he can kiss, simply ignores the camera. He looks sad and morose as he has no one beside him to kiss.
