'Soulless, f**king jerk': Dave Portnoy heckled by mystery woman while reviewing pizza in Long Island
Dave Portnoy, the founder of Barstool Sports, was heckled by a random woman while he was at La Capricciosa Brick Oven Pizza in Greenport on Tuesday, July 5. Portnoy, who was shooting content for his episodes of 'One Bite Pizza Reviews', was caught off guard when the woman called him a "rape apologist" and the confrontation caught entirely on camera was not merry. Portnoy uploaded the 4-minute-long video on Barstool Sports' official website.
When the woman yelled "rape apologist," Portnoy tells the cameraman to zoom in on the lady to which she replies, "That's me, right? You’re a f**king jerk. Zoom in on him, and see how f**king soulless he is,” the mystery woman replies. Of course, the 45-year-old blogger and internet celebrity is taken aback and replies, "Why do you say that?" to which the woman replies, "Because I’ve seen the s**t that you write, and also your anti-union bullsh*t is disgusting. I hope you're f**king Barstool Sports bulls**t dies and rots in the ground." To which the blogger replies that they've been going on for 20 years strong. Portnoy's sport and culture site labeled this incident as a "hater confrontation." She stormed off after saying, "You’re f**king ugly, by the way."

Portnoy and his company have caught a lot of flack in recent years which almost seems deliberate as they keep making rape jokes, harass woman journalists, and use the N-word. A Twitter post, which is a compilation of Portnoy using the N-word went viral back in the days. Portnoy's controversy and altercation with 'Union' began when he re-posted a 2015 article where he claimed that he would "smash" any employee who tries to come through with a union effort. “If you work for @barstoolsports and DM this man I will fire you on the spot,” Portnoy tweeted on August 13, 2019.

Things got serious when one woman shared her suicidal tendencies ever since her encounter with Portnoy. However, Portnoy decided to speak up in a video that he posted on Twitter saying, "My Response To The Business Insider Hit Piece That Has Been 8 Months In The Making (Part 1/2)". He said, "Her version of events is not true on our hookup, just not true. Neither of us were like, ‘Oh, you shouldn’t be doing’ — it was 100 million percent consensual. What’s going on in her brain? I have no idea. At no point was it not 100 percent consensual. At no point did she ask me to stop. At no point did either of us think something unseemly happened. There was no weirdness after. It was totally fine. Normal interaction." Addressing another allegation, he said, "If she’s depressed because she hooked up with me, that’s awful. That’s freaking awful. I feel terrible about it."
