Video: Mom Goes Viral For 'Embarrassing' Behavior At College World Series

Video: Mom Goes Viral For 'Embarrassing' Behavior At College World Series originally appeared on The Spun. An apparent mom is going viral for her "embarrassing" behavior at the College World Series in Omaha. The LSU Tigers topped the Coastal Carolina Chanticleers in the College World Series. LSU topped Coastal Carolina in back-to-back games to win the College World Series for the second time in three years. It's the eighth national championship in program history. Meanwhile, at Charles Schwab Field in Omaha, Nebraska, an LSU Tigers fan is going viral for her "embarrassing" behavior on the field. Tensions grew between a woman in a yellow dress and a man in an LSU Tigers football jersey. From the report: The gentleman in the LSU football jersey (clearly a little confused about which sport is being played) looks like he's enjoying the spirited conversation he's having with the lady in the yellow dress. It would appear the yellow-dressed lady doesn't feel the same way, though. Middle fingers are being flung and obscenities are being screamed, and it takes a lady from a different section in addition to the husband (?) to hold this psycho fan back from making some questionable decisions. The College World Series is often praised for its wild atmosphere. Thankfully, things didn't escalate to too much of a crazy level on Sunday.

Mom ignites controversial debate over her ‘insulting' birthday gift: ‘This is just ridiculous'

This mom is taking 'bring your own' to another level. Offering to help clean up at the end of a party is one thing — but bringing your own stash of cleaning supplies as a 'gift' to the party throwers is another. 'This is a kid's birthday party and the last thing I want to do to the parents of the child is to give them some present for the kids that's going to end up in landfill…,' explained a mom in a TikTok video. So what did she bring instead of an actual gift for the birthday kid? A bag full of cleaning products and supplies. '…so you know when you go to a party and everyone wants to help but nobody knows how to help because they don't know where any of the cleaning stuff is…I bring my cleaning rags… Glad Wrap, I like to bring dishwashing fluid…cleaning product — who knows how to find the cleaning products in someone else's house?' the determined mom said. This gesture could be looked at one of two ways — either it's a thoughtful idea or it's intrusive. And the commenters on TikTok were very divided on how they felt about it. 'This is so thoughtful. as a mama, I appreciate this so much,' one person expressed. 'this is pretty weird ngl,' quipped another commenter. 'this is actually a really cool idea,' another comment read. 'What the hell! Who the hell are you to bring cleaning products to a host's house! That's no present. That's insulting to the owner! No one needs your dodgy cleaning or dodgy cleaning products!' argued someone else. Talk about two contrasting views. In a follow-up video to all the controversy, the TikTok mom clarified that she doesn't give her cleaning stash as an actual gift. 'What I gave the kid was more time with their parents, so at the end of the party, the parents don't have to be cleaning up and doing stuff that will take them away from their kids,' she said, defending her decision. Unfortunately, the commenters stuck by their guns as the explanation video didn't sway their opinions. 'Tbh, family do this anyway. Personally I didn't think a child would value this. Parents might. It's not about having to spend money but choosing something a child would love,' someone argued. 'Omg everyone gets you don't give it to the child. You can do all of that and still give the child a present. Sorry, but this is just ridiculous,' another angry commenter wrote.

📲 Viral TikTok finds: Shop an AI bed, nourishing bubble mask and more

Consider this your weekly guide to the internet's trendiest products across beauty, wellness, travel and beyond. Whenever the world feels like it's on fire, I bury myself even further into the digital world of TikTok—super healthy coping mechanism, I know! The platform is such a haven for shopping inspiration, whether it's a cute TikTok trend or a popular product that everyone can't stop talking about. I love that it offers a space for not only respite and creative relief, but also for cool product recommendations. As such: This week, the app has been brimming with so many trending products. From an AI-powered Eight Sleep bed that's loved by tech's most prominent innovators to a Bella Hadid-approved aperitif that'll help you embrace Italian summer vibes—even if you're just curled up at home—there's truly something for everyone to shop. To help guide you in the direction of your next favorite purchase, I've created a breakdown of this week's 5 most viral TikTok products, including explanations on why certain items are trending, what professional shoppers (like myself) really think about them and why they deserve a spot in your digital shopping cart. Keep reading to shop the TikTok-viral items below: Check out our TikTok Shop Shop this week's most viral TikTok products Lands' End Side Tie Mini Swim Dress Swimsuit Want something with a little more coverage? Try TikTok's latest product obsession: Swimsuit dresses. This Lands' End style comes in a variety of prints. $145 at Lands' End Forget skin-baring bikinis and cheeky thongs—this summer, it's all about the tankini and swimsuit dress. Many TikTok users have swapped their usual swimwear staples for more comfortable pieces that offer ample coverage—without skimping on style. Among the most viral: The Lands' End Tie Mini Dress Swimsuit. My verdict? My personal style can best be described as a mix between grandma-chic and a fairy—it's tame, classic and generally errs on the side of conservative as opposed to anything skimpy. Naturally, I'm all for this era of more covered (and comfortable) swimwear, and the variety of cute options from Lands' End makes me feel like I'm finally getting some representation in the swim category—at long last! Eight Sleep Pod 5 Ultra Hack your sleep routine with the help of Eight Sleep's best-selling Pod 5 Ultra—a smart mattress cover that relies on AI tracking to hone in on your optimal nighttime temperature. Shop at Eight Sleep When the world's top tech creators—not exactly a group associated with getting great sleep—all swear by one single mattress cover for improving their sleep quality, you can trust it's an effective product. Such is the case with the AI-powered Eight Sleep Pod 5 Ultra, which has received glowing endorsements from figures such as Bryan Johnson and Elon Musk My verdict? While I'm deeply weary about anything regarding AI, I have to admit—Eight Sleep's Pod mattress covers are beyond impressive and so useful for tracking more detailed sleep metrics. I can see why they've become a coveted tool of the world's most influential and if you're willing to splurge a little extra money, can confirm the tech is well worth the high price. Kin Euphorics High Rhode Non-Alcoholic Aperitif Make this citrus-flavored aperitif a staple at your next summer soirée or dinner party. It pairs beautifully with more savory dishes. $39 at Amazon The flavors of summer come to life in this Kin Euphorics Non-Alcoholic Aperitif that's designed to lift your spirits, support your wellness goals and satiate your appetite for a quality aperitif. Kin Euphorics was created by supermodel Bella Hadid, and TikTok users have dubbed the drinks a "summer staple." My verdict? Poolside aperitifs that'll give me a taste of the Italian coast—sans any lingering hangover? I'm already sold. Everyone say: Thank you, Bella Hadid! Holy Basil Bubble Deep Mask Mix this clay face mask with a little water and watch the solution bubble up into a carbonated consistency on your skin. $20 at Amazon $19.56 on TikTok I'm always looking to TikTok for more ways to innovate my skincare routine, and this Holy Basil Bubble Mask is known for doing just that—plus it's one of the app's most popular beauty products at the moment. Don't be fooled by the mask's clay-like consistency; once activated with water, the formula will create fluffy, carbonated bubbles on your face, which will work to deeply cleanse pores. My verdict? If this mask is half as effective as it is fascinating to look at in its peak-bubble form, it'll be a worthwhile buy. Self-Cleaning Cat Litter Box Amazon shoppers (and TikTok users alike) love this smart little box for its self-cleaning capabilities and dome shape, which helps to conceal any stinky scents better than standard litter boxes. $116 at Amazon Tired of cleaning your cat's litter box? Well with this quirky Self-Cleaning Litter Box, you can skip the pesky, even stinky chore and let this spaceship-like dome do all the heavy lifting (read: scooping) for you. My verdict? This viral litter box is modern, tech-powered and designed to elevate in the best way—is this like the cat version of an Eight Sleep mattress? Perhaps. And hey, if you're splurging on a new lifestyle essential for yourself (à la the above Pod 5 Ultra), might as well treat your cat to something a little more sophisticated, too. A post shared by USA TODAY Shopping (@usatodayshopping) There are a couple factors I take into consideration when narrowing down the best TikTok products on any given week, including: Which product categories are trending on TikTok? Is there an organic discourse surrounding individual items? Are there product reviews from shoppers that can support the hype surrounding a popular TikTok product? Understanding the functionality of an item—beyond just its virality—is critical in assessing its value, and I ensure that any products recommended here are also backed by USA Today Shopping editors, shoppers and boast no lower than a 4.0 average rating.
