Zach Bryan got into a heated argument with a patron he believed was recording him at a New York City bar, according to video obtained by TMZ.
Bryan, 28, was out with some friends in the West Village on Monday night, February 17, when the alleged altercation took place. The Grammy-winning singer-songwriter was seen shooting some pool and, after losing three games, allegedly lost his temper with another guest.
The video was captured on a pair of Ray-Ban Meta glasses, which the “Something in the Orange” singer even tried on himself at one point, saying, “You’re gonna see some terrible things tonight.”
Witnesses at the bar told TMZ that Bryan’s mood “changed on the drop of a dime” after his misfortune at the pool table. Though the video is missing some context, another patron can be heard telling Bryan, “I’m not trying to record your ass. I’m trying to record my s— with my friends, for memories, to have fun, and you’re just being a douche.”
Zach Bryan was not impressed when an audience member threw an object at him – for the second time in a week. While performing at the Moda Center in Portland, Oregon, the singer, 28, stopped his show to swear at a crowd member after an object resembling a can was pelted towards him. In footage […]
“That’s the gayest thing I’ve ever heard,” Bryan responded.
Bryan, knowing the glasses were recording, appeared to make a fist and said, “I wanna rip them off your face so bad, cause we’re at a bar.”
Witnesses also reported that Bryan and his friends asked the group to stop recording them “more than half a dozen times,” only leading the group to try and do so in a more secretive way.

Before the situation could escalate any further, Bryan’s friends acted quickly to pay the tab and leave the bar.
The altercation comes four months after Bryan’s public split with ex-girlfriend Brianna “Chickenfry” LaPaglia. In the aftermath of their breakup, he had to take to social media to implore fans to stop harassing his friends.
Zach Bryan is giving fans the full story about his recent arrest. “I wanted to be completely transparent with everyone who listens to my music about what happened yesterday with me getting arrested,” the 27-year-old songwriter said via his Instagram Story on Friday, September 8, one day after he was taken into custody in Vinta, […]
“All of you f—in weird couch warriors attacking and belittling my friends on the internet because you’re assuming I have a girlfriend are weird as hell and should be studied for science,” he wrote via his Instagram Story on January 9. “Everyone wonders why I quit touring and don’t want to be attached to music anymore, meanwhile you’re calling my friends ugly and harassing them?”
“Apparently I’ve [had] four different girlfriends in like two weeks, meanwhile my friends and me are just laughing and hanging out like we always have,” he continued. “I don’t have a girlfriend and don’t plan on having a girlfriend, however I do have normal friends that I love very much and would go to the ends of the earth for.”
