Who is Sir Yacht? Internet celebrity's antics in Guardians game go viral

Sir Yacht, comedic content creator and a prominent Cleveland Guardians supporter, got the opportunity to throw the first pitch at the game between the Guardians and the Boston Red Sox on Thursday. However, he took a comic misstep, tangled his legs, and collapsed on the field. The ball then completely soared past the plate and ended up in the side.

Although he is popularly known as Sir Yacht, his real name is John Kinsely and he is from Cleveland, Ohio. He is a man of many passions and has given himself the title of CEO of Ohio.

He most recently appeared as one of the competitors on Food Network's reality show "Worst Cooks of America." He is also a singer and creates content on TikTok about Ohio, which went viral during the pandemic, getting him over 350,000 followers.

After the video of his fall went viral, baseball fans started debating if it was intentional.

In fact, a lot of Twitter users thought it was done on purpose:

Sir Yacht, a full-time content creator

Yacht's Ohio comedy videos have amassed more than 350,000 followers on TikTok and millions of views since the outbreak started. Creating content, especially on TikTok, is now his full-time job.

Sir Yacht used to have a regular job before he started sharing videos of himself eating a whole lemon or diving into Lake Erie to celebrate a Browns victory. Plans were altered after COVID. After losing his job, he was forced to pursue his long-held passion of becoming a content creator.

A successful bet earned him a spot on the last two seasons of Food Network's Worst Cooks in America, where he had the opportunity to study under Clevelander Michael Symon.

Through Twitter and Instagram, Sir Yacht enjoys communicating with his followers. He has also put out a number of successful singles and albums. Three of his most well-liked tracks, Blue, Jacuzzi, and Lunatic, are available for streaming on SoundCloud and YouTube.
