IShowSpeed's hat gets stolen during Albanian IRL stream, fan posts "come getcha hat"

Popular YouTube streamer Darren "IShowSpeed" had quite a ride yesterday (June 20) during his first-ever visit to Albania. For those unaware, the streamer is currently in Europe due to the ongoing UEFA Euros 2024, which is being held in Germany. However, he hasn't stayed put in one location, instead touring various cities across the continent.

During his stream yesterday, Darren visited a clothing store named Illyrian Bloodline in Tirana, which is the capital city of Albania. As one would expect, fans flocked outside the store, waiting to catch a glimpse of the streamer.

While he was making his way out of the store and towards his vehicle, someone in the crowd pinched his hat (which he had just bought from the store). Here's a picture of the streamer wearing the hat before losing it:

The moment was captured in the stream. A bewildered Darren responded:

"Somebody stole my hat. Somebody stole my hat. F**k somebody stole my hat! Albania! Oh god, oh sh*t!"
