That greasy fuck should have never been anywhere near the trophy. But honestly it sheds more light on what a corrupt clown institution FIFA is and how embarrassing they are.
FIFA simply cannot tolerate ethical violations. >

*when they haven’t gotten their cut. >

It was salt in the wound >

A dagger in the heart >

A BAEonette >

brutus maximus >

Ok, yes, FIFA is shit, but for real,. What the fuck was that dude doing on the damn pitch with the winners??? >

Holding up the trophy >

Smacking it with his hand while wearing a ring too.  Disgusting. >

That sound made me cringe. And he put his teeth on a medal. >

Worse, on several medals. >

"FIFA upset they were not adequately compensated for special access to field by 'celebrity' ticket holder" >

FIFA didn't get a cut of the Salt Bae's marketing $$$ >

He bribed his way on. There it is. >

Well they know that, they want to find out why they weren't in on the bribe. >

Tons of foreign workers/guards and it's the last day for them to work in the country. Perfect time to take the money and run. >

FIFA upset that somebody other than them may have received bribes to allow access. >

This guy's face look terrifies me
edit: the look on this guy's face terrifies me >

I'm vibing with the guy in the background, looking at him like "Wait, who's this asshole?" >

Many current and former footballers, including Messi, Cristiano Ronaldo and David Beckham, have eaten at Salt Bae's restaurants.
I’m sure many footballers at some point in their lives have eaten at McDonald’s. Should Ronald McDonald be allowed on the pitch too? >

McDonald's sponsors the World Cup... so he has more rights than that other shitbag >

Thanks I didn’t know that >

Can’t stand this shithead. Only with fifa can a donkey like this wonder around with the winners. >

Kevin Hart at the eagles Superbowl >

At least Kevin is a notable Philadelphian so there’s kinda some rationale there if you squeeze lemon into your eyes, squint, and turn your head upside down. Honestly his behavior is pretty on par for an Eagles fan.
No one likes us, we don’t care. >

It amazes me that this dude is famous in any form of the word. I went to Turkey a few months ago and the concierge at the hotel recommends we go to one of Salt Bae’s restaurants. We went over and through the windows we saw three waiters singing and throwing shit like benihanas and people were just recording and clapping. My wife and I noped the fuck out of there and a very nice quiet restaurant down the street. >

Fuck Fifa, Fuck Qatar, and Fuck this dude and his shitty restaurants. >

u still bitching about Qatar >

You still being a facsist apologist >

keep dickriding the detractors >

Keep dickridding facism >

you would swallow every denigrator >

I bet you complain about how sensationalized the news is meanwhile you go ur still mad about blank go back to the primordial slurry you don't believe existed you evangelical stain on this planet >

they won’t call you back no matter how much you gawk for them >

Totally scientific poll, but does Nusret have the most punchable face ever? >

Idk about that, Mitch McConnell has a sizeable lead on that one. >

But you know that if you tried, he'd just retract his head into his shell. >

Your hand would get trapped in his phat neck pussy >

And that is how he came to be called Assault Bae. >

I pass this dude’s restaurant in NYC all the time and it’s always empty >

It’s somehow busy in Dallas. But Dallas is nothing if not image-conscious, so expensive = good here. >

Shame it’s so shallow >

He put his mouth all over the trophies. Wtf. >

Fck this guy for eternity man.  He is the prototypical social media leech.  
Do you know how many Argentinian fans would have loved to be there next to their team?
And this guy just waltzes in.  I bet he does not even know where Argentina is.
He is not even a good cook, guy became a meme and market the F out of it. >

Meh, he's just another guy bribing fifa
 The whole event is based on bribes >

Dude is a tool.  Who cares. >

I have no idea who this guy is and I’m extremely tired of seeing him repeatedly. Please stop giving this attention whore what he wants. >

I don’t think I could possibly hate his nickname anymore. >

Considering all the ethical violations fifa and Qatar were a part of this world cup this is hilarious. >

I didn't realize how short or how ugly that guy was till the world cup >

FIFA is pleased as hell to take the focus off of slave labor and bribery for the first time in weeks. >

Glad they’re investigating stuff that matters not human rights or migrant deaths or blood money bribes >

"It is easier to beg forgiveness than to ask permission."
-- Adm. Grace Hopper. >

Completely irrelevant quote here, considering Salt Bae and the others didn't just 'let themselves onto the pitch'. Security would have removed them promptly if they didn't facilitate access, likely through bribes. >

So, you think he asked permission to bribe somebody??? >

Salt Bae is a dick head >

Until this thread, I had never heard of him before. >

I don't know what's worse, Salt Bae being a social media leech again or FIFA deciding that this was worth investigating and not the mountain of disgraceful shit they do in regards to brides, human rights abuses, and fraud. But yeah let's focus our attention on Salt Bae, we'll show him! Fuck off FIFA >

Workers die building the infrastructure and FIFA wants to investigate this… >

This is what they investigate? Lol. What are they going to do? Not take his bribe? >

This guy looks like a mummified corpse that has been reanimated. >

What about the thousands of people that died during the building of the stadiums? The slave like conditions some workers faced? >

They have time, ‘cause they ain’t investigating the slavery…. >

Honestly a hilarious move by this guy, his job is to be a meme and that’s what he’s doing >

you're the only person in here who gets it. he's so good at generating exposure of his name/brand. people pay social media consultants millions for this sort of stuff. everyone knows salt bae >

Had no idea who he was tbh. Still don’t really.
Also give zero Fuchs about someone touching a trophy, but if he wasn’t supposed to be there and managed not just to be there but to put his lips all over it, well, that’s funny. >

what, is he like Qatar's biggest celebrity or something? >

No bribes, no special access.. clearly someone didn’t get the memo.. >

He had his steak in it. >

Bro was holding on to dear life to players >

Like anything FIFA, “you pay you play”. The only reason FIFA is upset is because they were not the ones getting the bribe. >

I'm do excited to get back to never hearing that cringy name >

FIFA = Final Investigation For Access >

Oh noooo some guy touched a pretty piece of metal whatever is the world coming to 😱 >

I love how they are all puzzled by how he could access the stadium, when it probably takes a couple big bills given to the right persons to get there. >

Why would Salt Bae personally care, other than bad publicity? FIFA can’t fine him. Their only retribution is perhaps banning from future events, right? >

Salt Bae is literally a meme cook whose only claim to fame is a viral Instagram video showing his stylistic method of sprinkling salt on meat. That, and opening an ultra-expensive and ludicrously overpriced steakhouse in London where you can pay over a thousand pounds for a steak covered in gold leaf.
I question why somebody would be so vapid and pretentious to bribe some Qatari sheikhs for access to the pitch after Argentina's victory. But then I remembered... it's Salt Bae.
This year's World Cup has been an utter shitshow to say the least, with some incredible matches being the only saving graces. It has not only disrupted the regular club football season, but has also upset sponsors (AB InBev especially), led to thousands of lost lives from use of slave labour, and has shown just how utterly crooked FIFA are as an organisation. Safe to say it will be the last time a Middle Eastern nation hosts and that Qatar has ruined the chances of another rich Arab state like say... Saudi Arabia from hosting a future World Cup.
I would not be surprised in the slightest if the corruption spread beyond FIFA's own executives. Given some of the questionable and even downright asinine decisions referees have made in this WC alone, I question whether they were being bribed too.
Of course if something like that ever came out, it would probably lead to mass civil unrest. >

Is salt Bae the Elon musk or cooking? >

More like Salt For-BAE-din from ever going to the world cup again. Am I right???
Edit: Guess I'm wrong. Ah well. >

Love the ambition… bit of a stretch though >

Gotta swing for the fences. >

Sometimes you should really just bunt for base hits. >

Absolutely fair. Can't get greedy! >

It looks like he's trying to say the word avocado >

Out of the loop, why all the hate towards him? >

He achieved fame by being a meme which is looked down upon. He used that fame to open some very overpriced and mediocre steakhouses. He is a big supporter of Erdogan who is very much not well liked. Being on the field and touching the World Cup trophy is seen as sacrilegious to many. >

I bet no bribery was involved in this at all >

Messi seriously can do no wrong….lol love that guy! >

Being a pissy little baby when they only won silver in Brazil and not even wanting to take the mvp medal was definitely a real salty loser moment. >

Your comment is a salty loser, a little self-criticism wouldn't hurt you friend >

Fucking trash got to hold the cup and was harassing messi. >

What a vile piece of human garbage. >

Now we know where he gets the gold to sprinkle on his steaks. >

Who gives a shit. This just in, a man was in a place, he is now not. >

I'm curious how corrupt nations like the USA and Mexico can host a world cup. >

THAT they investigate? Fifa just got caught ass deep in corruption that threatened to topple the EU and that they investigate? Sure, why not? Fans aren't gonna say shit. >

It's incredibly weird where FIFA draws the line between acceptable and unacceptable and what lies in each category. >

One of those classic wasp vs. scorpion matchups, someone is going to get stung, and I really don't mind which one it is. >

So fuck fifa like everyone else said and I’m not trying to defend them. But this is what any responsible league would do. You need to figure out the lapses in security that allowed an unauthorized person to make it not only on the field, but to actually end up holding the trophy. That’s a massive risk >

Prolly ‘cause he paid a bunch of money to FIFA to hold the World Cup trophy >

Fuck FIFA!
Fuck salt bae! >

He always looks like he's trying to smell his teeth. >

I’m going with bribery. >

I will celebrate when this old cigarette filter dies. >

In an age where grown men are going with "Salt Bae being there" as the biggest non-game story of the World Cup. >

The biggest stories are,  of  course, the blatantly corrupt allocation of the World Cup to Qatar in the first place and the atrocious 'modern' slavery-type  conditions which thousands of poor imported foreign workers endured (and endure)  to build all these White Elephant stadia which enabled the WC to be staged there.. >

Salt bae is a royal POS but most people are kidding themselves that they wouldn’t do the same thing if given the opportunity >

It happened now get over it >

Qatar is mad about undue access to an event that was made possible with undue access. >

The way this man pushes his entire mouth to the side, intentionally, when he speaks English, is a complete and utter joke >

He didn’t pay us to be there. Salt guy is just so lame and thirsty. He kept grabbing at Messi to try and shake his hand and Messi wanted nothing to do with him.
