Kick founder says streamer banned after making viral Dine & Dash video
A Kick streamer has been officially booted from the platform after a video he posted appeared to show him dining and being boisterous… and leaving an allegedly homeless woman to foot the bill.
Here’s the deal… a streamer – who goes by this name Stupid stupid jeez on the platform – posted a video of you sitting across from a woman named Mabelwho he believes is homeless.
Dumbdumbjeez opens the bill, sees the $76 price tag and tells his tablemate to get his wallet from his car… before walking out and heading down the street to a waiting car.
The clip has gone viral and Kick’s co-founder Bijan Tehrani says he didn’t find this “joke” all that funny… taking to social media to let people know Dumbdumbjeez was trying to win a $50,000 contest – and saying he’d get a ban from the company instead .
Tehrani says the company would like to give Mabel $50,000 if anyone can connect the two parties.
BT might want to hold off on writing checks for a while… because Dumbdumbjeez says he informed this woman about the whole situation before running out the door.
He says he tried to rig the contest – which asks people to take a stranger out – by saying he already gave Mabel the money… so no one was actually harmed in the making of the clip.
Hard to know what to believe here… but it looks like Dumdumbjeez had to contact Kick – as the platform is now putting a pause on his account.
