“He was standing there behind the camera and I just thought I’d mess with him hoping maybe the camera would get a shot of it.”

“I was just looking at my friend’s phone cause he was showing me a video and this guy took my ice cream,” Campen told the news website. “I didn’t get to lick it yet, I had just got it so at least it was clean. I was friendly about it because I saw him walk off and get me a new one, and we both laughed because it was on TV.”
