Dave Portnoy Confronted With Antisemitic Slur During Mississippi Pizza Review

The on-camera rebuke from bystanders echoes Portnoy's warning about rising antisemitism.

Overview

  • Video shows a passerby shouting an antisemitic slur at Portnoy as he filmed a One Bite review outside Boardtown Pizza in Starkville.
  • Bystanders immediately condemned the remark and a man stepped between the two, and no physical altercation occurred.
  • Portnoy gestured for the heckler to come on camera before the pair exchanged inaudible words and the man walked away.
  • The individual seen yelling the slur has not been publicly identified, and reports cite no arrests or charges.
  • The episode follows similar incidents this year, including a Toronto heckle, as Portnoy told CBS he now encounters antisemitism daily.
