It’s no shocker that the Tampa Bay Rays’ Chris Archer has adoring fans of both sexes. The 26-year-old player certainly makes the game a little more exciting.
For what it’s worth, he’s a pitcher — talk about a grand slam.
So it seems only natural that a gay fan would feel compelled, as the one below did, to blow Chris a kiss at a recent game.
But if you blow someone a kiss, it’s theirs to do with as they will:
How about we take this to the next level?

Sorry, fellas. You’re going to have to work a little harder to get to this:
Will Glitzern
The guy isn’t kiss-worthy anyway.
Maggie Brown
At least he didn’t say or do anything derogatory, he just rejected the “kiss”
Glücklich
@Will Glitzern:
Agreed. “…get this.” Get what? Not particularly attractive and on some team most people probably forget even exists.
Paco
Funny.
Gavin Fitch
I actually find it kinda humorous. He was playful.
Joseph C Landis-Midnight
I wouldn’t call it rejecting, I’d say he has a good personality and is good with fans.
DarkZephyr
Do we even know that the fan was actually gay? I don’t blame Archer for not pretending like he was grabbing the kiss and rubbing it in.
Ryan Cooney
Molly O’Brien something I would do
aliengod
LOL. I thought his reaction was great. He didn’t do anything offensive. He’s attractive but needs to cut that hair.
Kangol
Um, he’s pretty cute to me! Love that curly hair too.
His response wasn’t bad either, playful but not homophobic.

Please….. Randal Grichuk is way hotter. And he sets off my gaydar.
Bengt Wågensjö
Never heard of this guy. Fortunately ð???
DuMaurier
@Will Glitzern: Everybody’s “kiss-worthy”. Which doesn’t mean everyone is personally appealing to everyone else.
Ryan Macintyre
@Queerty – the guy isn’t gay. he’s married to a woman laughing in the video. This was all done in fun. Lol. Not every man who blows a man a kiss is gay, wrong to assume!
Scribe38
LOL. I don’t see anything wrong with what he did. If we aren’t kissing in real life, don’t blow kisses at me. I would have blocked the hell out of that kiss, Wonder Woman bracelet style. BTW the pitcher is cute as hell, long hair or no hair. I’d do more than blow him a kiss. 😉

Damn. He is cute.

@gjg64: Not even close. Chris is way hotter.
A Jared Hayes
He was cool about it. Relax. Some guys would’ve initiated a fight over something so simple lol
Gerald GeeLocke Panuthos
well that was pretty mean spirited.
Arcamenel
It’s already been established but I will chime in again that yes Chris Archer is cute.
Julian BlueFire
Omg I totally Gavin Fitch it was very comical indeed can’t stop lol
Vick Salmeron

Adrian Phu Phan

Frank Sprafke
Very fun. He was playing along and a good sport .
Patrick Pelayo
He handled that with class. ABSOLUTE and TOTAL class.
Jeremy Holley
He was joking, must be desperate for a story so just had to make one up,
money718
@Vick Salmeron: Really? Haha
ScottOnEarth
That was cute and he’s hot. Didn’t seem like he was being a prick – just kidding around.
jason smeds
I hate this kiss-cam thing. It’s an invasion of privacy.
Robert Paige
Lol
martinbakman
@Ryan Macintyre: I wondered the same thing whether the fan was really gay, and there’s no way Chris Archer knew either.
Kaito Oroszco
That was funny
David Mor
They will just keep posting this story until they cause some unnecessary drama
Valentino Luna-Flores
Haha that’s awesome that he did that!
charmin88
