I didnt dump the nachos on him: Chris Christie is okay with his handling of heckling fan
Source: Washington Post
Leave it to New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie (R) to get the last word in concerning his confrontation with a heckler at a baseball game over the weekend.
In a moment that was captured on video that went viral, Christie, toting a bowl of nachos, wheeled to face a Chicago Cubs fan who had said you suck, among other things, as Christie walked past him at Milwaukees Miller Park. Christie got into the mans face and fired back, youre a real big shot.
On Wednesday, the governor said that he let the fan, Brad Joseph, off lightly.
For those of you who know me, I was very restrained, Christie told reporters (via NJ.com) during a news conference in Trenton. I didnt dump the nachos on him or anything, which I think was an option.

Christie is a bully and I hope I live to see the day that someone takes his ass down!

Taking credit for not being violent seems really off.

(10,180 posts)or just big, brave Governor Christie? As I recall, he's real tough with school teacher too when he has a mic and they don't.
Anyone else like to see someone smack the crap out of him? He's a crumb.

(3,426 posts)Sometimes I amaze myself, as I stared down my heckler adversary I almost saw the headline in the news. I would have reached out to grab it but, I quickly realized I was holding my nachos with hand the I use to grab headlines. Just like the prize in the cracker jack box my nachos delivered! And I'm still milking it !

(1,900 posts)the guy wasn't a cop who "feared for his life".
I think if I was that guy I would have grabbed a big handful of nachos, thanked him, and then asked him what he had to wash it down with.
