US Reporter Hits the Jackpot: Gets Phone Number Live on Air

Wiley Ballard made headlines during the Atlanta Braves vs. Blue Jays game when he successfully flirted with two female fans and ultimately secured one’s phone number live on air. During a live broadcast, Ballard interviewed the women about the game and their presence at the Braves’ stadium. The studio then challenged him to ask for their phone numbers, giving him four attempts. After revealing the challenge to the women, he humorously admitted, “They don’t believe me because they think you’re messing with me.” Eventually, he succeeded in getting one woman’s number, quipping, “I should’ve thought of this years ago. We’re good!” While some praised his antics, others criticized the incident on social media, pointing out potential misogyny and questioning how the situation might have played out if a female reporter had done the same.
