Not to be all “the other guy had it coming,” but…

Theo Von has developed a persona as a delightfully foolish, fun-loving guy. However, it turns out that if you push him hard enough, he might just snap back at you. That, or “getting into a fight” is just an entry requirement for Nashville bars these days. Who can say!

Recently, a video has gone viral showing a man at a Music City bar approaching Von holding a bunch of balloons. As Von seemingly repeatedly tells the dude to back up, he is unrelenting, getting closer to the comedian and bringing the balloons into the conversation for good measure.

After a few seconds of this, Von hits his limit, grabbing the guy by the neck and pushing him backwards.

While Von was definitely wrong for doing this, I’m going to say that the other dude up in his grill was definitely being a dick. Not saying you should choke out every asshole you see, but if you annoy people in a Tennessee bar, you should expect a little bit of roughhousing.
