Phillie Phanatic hilariously recreates viral Coldplay kiss cam scandal

The Phillies delivered their take on the story that won’t die.

They recreated the viral Coldplay concert “kiss cam” moment as part of Friday night’s game against the Angels.

In the middle of the contest, a segment called the “Coldplay Kiss Cam” appeared on the Citizens Bank Park’s outfield video board, with the Coldplay song “Clocks” playing in the background. Eventually, the camera zoomed in on the Phillie Phanatic and another mascot donning a blonde wig.

The mascots humorously reenacted the awkward reactions captured in the viral video that featured Astronomer CEO Andy Byron alongside the head of human resources, Kristin Cabot, highlighted on the kiss cam during a Coldplay concert on July 16.

They quickly covered their faces, attempting to conceal their apparent affair, which was further fueled by frontman Chris Martin’s quip, “Either they’re having an affair or just very shy.”

Their viral exit prompted Astronomer to place both executives on leave and launch an internal investigation.

“Astronomer is committed to the values and culture that have guided us since our founding. Our leaders are expected to set the standard in both conduct and accountability,” the tech-and-data firm said in a statement.

“The Board of Directors has initiated a formal investigation into this matter and we will have additional details to share very shortly.”

The game itself saw Philadelphia attempt to maintain momentum after the All-Star break, but ending up losing, 6-5, to the Angels.

Philly dropped to 55-42 on the year, but maintained a 1/2 game lead on the Mets, who dropped a home contest to the Reds on Friday.
