In a moment in which many a sporting enthusiast can relate, a social media star’s dad made a hilarious attempt to convince his wife to let him miss his wedding anniversary in favor of going to UFC 311.
While celebrating with the love of his life would likely be fantastic, the man in question is struggling to resist the allure of watching the best in the business throw down inside the octagon.
Social media star’s dad wants to go to UFC 311 instead of celebrating his wedding anniversary
Robby Berger of The Brilliantly Dumb Podcast has uploaded an extremely amusing video of his parents arguing about their special day.
While the pair are approaching their 41st wedding anniversary, the content creator’s dad has something he deems far more important on his mind.
Yes, doing something romantic with the love of his life would be fantastic, but in equal measure, so would a night at the Intuit Dome in Inglewood, California, USA, to watch UFC 311—especially with the rematch between Islam Makhachev and Arman Tsarukyan headlining the card.
Of course, this idea hasn’t gone down well with his partner, whose son filmed her laying into him, saying: “Mike, you actually want to go a UFC fight on our 41st anniversary?”

Making his case, her husband, replied: “Please, I’ve been to 40 of our anniversaries. Alas, this statement was quickly disproved, with his love pointing out: “You didn’t go to the first one; you didn’t have a good start.”
As it turns out, the husband actually attended the Super Bowl on that occasion, but nonetheless, he continued his efforts, despite his wife suggesting this could be their last anniversary.
He pleaded: “It’s UFC 311, Merab Dvalishvili vs Umar Nurmagomedov. I’m asking you as a favor. We’ll celebrate our anniversary when I get home.”
Concluding the debate, his wife asserted: “At this point, if you’re looking for a fight, just stay home.”

An understanding individual, added: “Hard to blame pops here…it’s a stacked card.”
However, the overwhelming majority of social media users, just couldn’t quite get over, Sue’s brutal line at the end.
An amused person, wrote: “Lol, ‘If you’re looking for a fight, just stay home’. Late-round KO from Mom.” Another chuckled: “That’s the coldest line I’ve ever heard.”
