Hey, people who don't really like NJ Governor Chris Christie: If you heckle him while he's got an ice cream cone in his hand, Christie will hulk out. TMZ has video of a cone-frontation in Seaside Heights. Basically, a passer-by criticized Christie's education policy, prompting Christie to yell, "You're a real big shot ... you're a real big shot shootin' your mouth off."
Then the man yelled, "Nah, just take care of the teachers!" and Christie followed the man, "Keep walkin' away ... really good ... keep walkin'."
As it happens, Christie is bragging about hitting 5 million views on Youtube with a montage of his greatest hits.
