Back in 2011 if you took too long during your acceptance speech at the Spike VGAs a military man would run out and teabag you



I think this was very funny and they should bring it back, it would help incentivize devs taking up less show time that could go towards reveal trailers

I still remember watching this happen live.

Like a train wreck, I couldn't look away and the horrifying carnage will forever live rent free in my mind.

Was this threatened/attempted on any winners that did not agree ahead of time because if not... this is straight up sexual assault?

I don't remember this. I think I was better off not remembering, to be honest.

No. This is dumb. The people getting an award should have as much time as they need to talk, in my opinion.

Like... imagine if they tried to do this for something like That Dragon Cancer. Just thinking about it is making me so angry right now...

No, video games don't need to go back to an era of toxic boys club attitude everywhere you look

This was the only game awards I watched and I bailed when that skit came on. No regrets.

whoaaa, that happened during the Spike era?

for some reason I thought the Spike VGAs were some totally foreign realm to me, but I guess I watched at least one of those lol

(I remember enjoying McHale's presence way more than other people seemed to)

While you're at it, why not demand that Angry Joe accost Geoff during every awards ceremony as well? /s

Didn't this guy pretend to have an orgasm or something while interviewing Felicia Day? That was super awkward and inappropriate but I guess that's what guys find funny. Seems right in line with this teabagging skit, except Felicia wasn't in on the joke.

I feel like the modern equivalent of this would be someone coming on and doing a Fortnite dance or something. Maybe they should do that instead?

I hope it was clear that I was being sarcastic and that I think Angry Joe is massively cringe and can be obnoxious and rude. We don't need more Angry Joe at the awards ceremonies.

lol that's incredible. There are certain devs I'd love to see get teabagged but for most I wouldn't want to ruin their moment
