Stadium events have recently become sources of viral moments, with fans often becoming more interesting than the main events. At a Philadelphia Phillies game, a controversy over a home-run ball between fans generated 53 million views online. The stadium staff and player Harrison Bader later made up for the incident by giving gifts to the young boy involved.

At the US Open, a Polish executive intercepted a tennis player's hat intended for a young fan, creating a 24-million-view controversy that required a public apology. The most famous incident occurred at a Coldplay concert, where two Astronomer company executives were caught in an intimate moment on the Jumbotron.

Their video reached 130 million views, leading to their resignations and the company hiring Gwyneth Paltrow as a spokesperson. These incidents demonstrate how modern technology has transformed stadium experiences into potential viral content.
