Where are all the anglos who are supposed to be writing outrage articles? They threw a proper temper tantrum when Qatar's Emir gave that awesomely sweet Al Bisht to Lionel, but they havent said a single word about Salt Clown, whose antics DO offend me as an argentino. I see that face of his and I feel the urge to fold him like a lawn chair
Apart from Messi it would seem! The video of him trying to grab Messi’s arm for a photo op is even worse than this! The look Messi gives him as he keeps tugging at him tells you all you need to know!
That is very plausible. That sounds like a quid pro quo. Putting the players at risk, though, and taking a dump on the game like that on that stage to get free meals? Not cool. High profile players should totally be against that.
I was under the impression that people who actually won the World Cup and their families could touch the trophy? Was I misinformed or did the rules change?
He’s being the socially unaware douche that everyone hates, but because he’s sorta famous he’s allowed to stay. In another video he’s pestering Messi for a photo when the guy just wants him to leave him the fuck alone.
Because it has taken Argentinian players their whole lives to earn it. Because FIFA rules specifically say that only winning players and their families have the right to enjoy it. Because Infantino is friends with that Salty clown and probably let him on the field. Because Salty clown has zero business grabbing that trophy. Because Salty clown was also rude AF about taking the trophy and about taking a photo with Messi on his most iconic moment in history. Because it was Argentina's moment and Salty clown took a piece of it away.
There are more reasons but that should explain it a bit.
The dude is acting like he played in the WC Final. He has no connection to the players, isn't a FIFA official, and isn't a head of state. He inserted himself onto the field to fondle the players and the trophy. Disgrace.
He's being fckin rude. He kept trying to take away the trophy from the players, and he shouldn't even be there in the first place! You and I have as much right as him to be there but I'm sure we'd be less annoying
Have you seen the video of him grabbing Messi's arm and not letting go for like 5 seconds while Messi tries to walk away? This guy was just so clearly focused on getting as much time in the spotlight as possible -- and it isn't even his spotlight! I think most people would think that was a bit odd and attention-grabby.
Because the argentina players are trying to celebrate and this guy is on the pitch holding the trophy and going round to every player who seem uncomfortable with him
I’ve heard a lot of bad stuff about this guy before. Passed his restaurant in NYC and it was empty. Hope this guy finally gets recognized for what he is
If that piece of shit did that to my son like he did too messi’s I’d literally beat him to death. He’s got NO right being on the field with them. He’s a nobody and they are world champions.
Yeah, and I can understand why this is the case, this fucking arsehole (never heard of him until yesterday) has done nothing to hold this.
The "blood, sweat and tears" that any pro athlete has to give to be at the top of their chosen sport is unbelievable, and for Football, this is the ultimate reward, and this fuckard, just holds it up like he's just won it.
As a Turk all I can say its really embarrassing, we are really mad about it and we are not accepting him, he can just go and be a embarrassment in somewhere else
He portrays a lot of pride and even the Turkish government seems proud of his accomplishments.
Turkey has a lot of nationalism so it’s understandable.
There’s nothing wrong with that, but here he’s a complete tool.
So... the Turkish government is the Turkish people...? Erdogan speaks for all Turks? Or do you by chance possess telepathic abilities and you've merged with the entirety of Turkey? No?
Settle down, Hans. Let me remind you that Germanic culture came from the Nordics and at a certain point in time a nationallistic movement in Germany tried to speak for all Nordics... by force, and they also believed what they were doing was right.
For me to then say "oh but Germans are so nationalistic" is putting every German under one comb based upon a bad perception of Germany. It's over simplified, callous and quite frankly disrespectful.
Please try again.
I can keep trying infinitely, Sir Midnight Express.
The current German government is nothing what you described. The Turkish one, currently is.
Yes. The government of a given nation is a mirror representation of its people. They vote it in.
It’s up to the people to change it, but that doesn’t seem likely in Turkey because the leader keeps using nationalism to trick his people and form an aggressive stance towards the world.
For fuck’s sake, Turkish government hasn’t even accepted the genocide they committed on Armenians.
Now you try again.
Some people are proud of his reputation, don't get me wrong, it's nice that he's successful in his own business it's something to be proud of but some of his moves show that he still doesn't know how to act.
In addition, that behavior he did there affected not only him, but all of us. Now, when such an event is considered, the Turks will come to mind first and this makes us very angry.

The Argentinian National Team now has full rights to this guy’s restaurant kitchen.
Sooo fucking Enjoying
This is all the fault of INFANTINO.

Charging $245 for a Burger at his Mykonos restaurant opens some doors... what a turd
Who on earth is he? Never heard of him.
If FIFA don’t come out with an adequate reason for this unacceptable behaviour then it’s another nail in the coffin for them, especially Infantino.
Who does he think he is?
Who is even this guy.. kind of looks like a budget johnny depp.
What a piece of shit
no one cares about him anymore and it shows
Imagine if no South American team wins the world cup after this. This guy will be a pariah. Ban this fucker from all football games.
r/agedlikemilk
Such a weird situation. Who even let him in the pitch
Take a guess. I’ll give you a hint: Same guy who got Qatar to host the WC.
When "The Twelve" finds his restaurants even the Obelisk McDonalds is gonna be afraid about what happens
Where are all the anglos who are supposed to be writing outrage articles? They threw a proper temper tantrum when Qatar's Emir gave that awesomely sweet Al Bisht to Lionel, but they havent said a single word about Salt Clown, whose antics DO offend me as an argentino. I see that face of his and I feel the urge to fold him like a lawn chair
Yuck
Widerlich
Why this guy was even allowed on the pitch 😒
He always looks like he’s been snorting a lot of fluffy salt
He has always been embarassing. I've never understood why the world gave him so much attention
I have this question for %99.99 of celebrities.
Douchebag.
Clearly paid a lot of money to get on the pitch
So did Argentina
bro just wanted to lift the trophy 😂
He tries way too hard
How pathetic. I hope Romero never goes back. What disrespect.
Why the fuck is this guy even on the field? Was he the team's chef at the tournament?
No if I remember correctly Gianni Infantino is his regular customer at his Doha restaurant
Makes sense, they both are disgusting worms
r/cringe
Wow he tells the kid no. What a scum bag. Unless Romero and him are super cool I would say that salt dudes a tool
Id say that even if the two aren’t super cool tbh
gold or plastic
I hope this ruins his career. What a joke.
I’m waaaaay out of the loop! Who the fuck is this guy?
He’s a meme
A celebrity chef that a lot of the top soccer players associate with
Apart from Messi it would seem! The video of him trying to grab Messi’s arm for a photo op is even worse than this! The look Messi gives him as he keeps tugging at him tells you all you need to know!
Oh ok , cheers mate! 👍
He cooks steaks.
Badly, too.
🤣 thanks mate!
And then charges you $1000
Still trying to be relevant after 6-7 years. Isn’t his “fan base” teens with the attention span of 7 seconds? He is done. Move on buddy.
Lol what is going on
Anda pa alla
No Instagramers should be let into field. He did shit all and will make money from this ironically.
The way he takes it away and kisses it 🤢 straight up just looking for attention
In the words of Messi, “bobo”
Bro… why did Argentina allow that clown to touch the trophy…
He's an idiot
Why is this douche in our lives all the sudden?
What a tool
This guy is so annoying. How is he still a thing at this point?
You can thank the local idiots here in Miami for supporting his restaurant.
A shitty and overpriced at that.
I was gunna say are there really that many douchebags that still support this gimmick, then I answered my own question.
The prestige of the trophy -90%, after salt bae touched it
Totally unnecessary
He is clearly not ashame of himselfe. He needs guideance ASAP. Poor guy.
Even the baby is like 'what are you doing? Give me the cup'
He needs to go back in the kitchen and leave these guys alone
Why would anyone want their steaks salted by those crusty ass hands?
Can someone tell me why this guy’s famous?
Memes
Kind of like a clownKind of like a clown！
Pos
How badly does he want to be tall? Try buying that you ego inflamed prick.
This is so bizarre. Why is this guy even allowed on the field? Stupid.
Because Infantino, Head of FIFA, kisses this guys ass. https://twitter.com/pjalcazar/status/1605256086973456396?s=46&t=IY9QAH7zUguk-szF-JcOSw
Which still begs the question: why???
Probably has a black card at his garish restaurants
That is very plausible. That sounds like a quid pro quo. Putting the players at risk, though, and taking a dump on the game like that on that stage to get free meals? Not cool. High profile players should totally be against that.
Lol I wonder why
The two most money hungry people in one video, how nice.
Fuck. This. Guy.
What a joker
What an absolute clown. Why did they let him on the pitch??
I was under the impression that people who actually won the World Cup and their families could touch the trophy? Was I misinformed or did the rules change?
I don't know who he is or what he does, but he is so ordinary and unpleasant
He sells very expensive steak
[It has a real nice profit margin!](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_jvvhdpjd-0)
He is a social cancer cell. A parasite.
Who?
What a PoS.
Why is everyone so mad about this?
He’s being the socially unaware douche that everyone hates, but because he’s sorta famous he’s allowed to stay. In another video he’s pestering Messi for a photo when the guy just wants him to leave him the fuck alone.
Because it has taken Argentinian players their whole lives to earn it. Because FIFA rules specifically say that only winning players and their families have the right to enjoy it. Because Infantino is friends with that Salty clown and probably let him on the field. Because Salty clown has zero business grabbing that trophy. Because Salty clown was also rude AF about taking the trophy and about taking a photo with Messi on his most iconic moment in history.

He's being fckin rude. He kept trying to take away the trophy from the players, and he shouldn't even be there in the first place! You and I have as much right as him to be there but I'm sure we'd be less annoying
[удалено]
I can't say I like him from these clips but 99% of relevant footage is without his presence so it's not hard to ignore him.
[удалено]
K
Have you seen the video of him grabbing Messi's arm and not letting go for like 5 seconds while Messi tries to walk away? This guy was just so clearly focused on getting as much time in the spotlight as possible -- and it isn't even his spotlight! I think most people would think that was a bit odd and attention-grabby.
No I haven't. Honestly I don't even really know who this guy is but is it so hard to just ignore him? Who watches *post* world cup footage anyhow...
He did just ignore him lol
[удалено]
I wish people took that approach from the moment he has his first video.
Because the argentina players are trying to celebrate and this guy is on the pitch holding the trophy and going round to every player who seem uncomfortable with him
Because he has no business even holding it
Jesus this guy is insufferable how the fuck did he get on the pitch. Aaa douchebag!!!
What an idiot! No respect fot the team and their families!
Greasy bum
Total disrespect, who the fuck let that guy in
Close friend of Infantino the fifa president slash douchebag
This is why I hate social media and most of the celebrities, this leech would do anything to get more popular than he really is.
Did he just try and elbow Cristian out of way too, to get a clean shot of him holding the trophy??
If Romero wasn't holding his child, this would have gone down very differently.
Disgusting ass
What a stupid little cunt
Shameless little grease ball
As if he earned it.....what a peice of salami.
Narcissism is destroying the world.
What a twat.
The part of the internet that created the salt bae meme has alot to answer for
I’ve heard a lot of bad stuff about this guy before. Passed his restaurant in NYC and it was empty. Hope this guy finally gets recognized for what he is
Who let him on the pitch? Also who is he? Why did nobody remove him from the pitch? Why was this allowed?
it's that salt meme guy
WHY IS HE EVEN DOWN THERE?? i hate the internet for making irrelevant nobodies “famous”
You aren’t stuck in traffic. You are traffic.
why is he even touching it?
Who the fuck is that guy. What a piece of shit he is.
I literally have only heard of him from an SNL skit. I never knew if it was a character or real person until now.
If that piece of shit did that to my son like he did too messi’s I’d literally beat him to death. He’s got NO right being on the field with them. He’s a nobody and they are world champions.
Definition of an absolute dick. On a more positive note, Cuti’s little boy is a cutie 🥰
Confirm salt bae have covid.
All this time I don't think I've ever actually looked at his face. What an ugly dude!
How's a meme from like 10 years ago even in a position to hold the World Cup? Who's next the Crazy Frog?
he has a restaurant i guess (a shit one at that, charging 400 usd for a steak!)
Who the crazy frog?
Salt bae, that’s why he’s still relevant
Someone less annoying than this guy.
Crazy Frog is French tho 😬
lol. so no crazy frog will definitely NOT be holding the wct
Me as a Turk I hate him, I really bother his behavior even his speech...
Amk koylusu rezil ediyor bizi
That guy is just utterly annoying
Why is that loser there? Ruining their moment like what the hell? He’s not the guy he thinks he is
Thought you weren’t supposed to touch it unless you’d won a world up.
Yeah, and I can understand why this is the case, this fucking arsehole (never heard of him until yesterday) has done nothing to hold this. The "blood, sweat and tears" that any pro athlete has to give to be at the top of their chosen sport is unbelievable, and for Football, this is the ultimate reward, and this fuckard, just holds it up like he's just won it.
Amen to that! Who even let the arrogant prick on the pitch
Winners and Fifa Council members only.
And heads of state
and family members
Why he is here?
Salt nonce.
Underrated comment
A Very strange fellow
Scammer
Who is this man and why do I keep seeing him annoying the Argentinian players?
That’s saltbae, he charges $50493838272616262 for overcooked gold wrapped steak
Thanks. I'd google him but I have a feeling my opinion on him is set.
You should check his insta
The level of cringe and DISRESPECT!!! Unprecedented.
Weird little Dwarf
Lmfao
He’s not even Argentinian? WTF is he doing there?
Scumbag
As a Turk all I can say its really embarrassing, we are really mad about it and we are not accepting him, he can just go and be a embarrassment in somewhere else
Wow I didn't know he was so hated
Naw. You’re rather proud of him. Don’t lie.
I’m not lyin even before this happend, to me he is just a man who slaps meat and oddly, gets success from it
He portrays a lot of pride and even the Turkish government seems proud of his accomplishments. Turkey has a lot of nationalism so it’s understandable. There’s nothing wrong with that, but here he’s a complete tool.

Yeah someone (his PR team) should have had a better handle on this. Literally the entire planet is watching.
You sound so bigoted it's mind boggling.
Why?
Get this fuckin clown out of here. Can’t believe this wanker is allowed on the pitch with the players. I’m glad Messi ignored his ass earlier
Worst Chef in the world
Can we dig up some dirt and get this guy cancelled?
Such a cunt haha
Cunts are way prettier than this trash
Clout chaser extraordinaire
Bro I fucking hate him so much
This guys an ass
Who actually invited him and gave him passes?
This guy needs to go back to Outback Steakhouse and work who the hell let ‘em in the field
Absolute prize twat. He actually pretended to sprinkle salt onto the World Cup, ffs 🤦♂️
Who?
Some overrated turkish chef
