'Pretentious, Arrogant, Self-Absorbed': MLB Player Slammed After Claiming His Pregnant Wife Had to Clean Up Mess on AirplaneToronto Blue Jays pitcher Anthony Bass is under fire for calling out United Airlines after his 2-year-old daughter spilled popcorn on a recent flight.

Flying with young children, especially babies and toddlers, can be difficult for any parent or guardian — and professional athletes are no exception.

悉尼Rae低音,妻子的多伦多蓝鸟队的投手Anthony Bass was recently traveling on a United Airlines flight with the couple's 5-year-old and 2-year-old when their youngest spilled popcorn all over the floor of the plane. Bass claims that a United flight attendant forced his wife to clean it up herself, as he angrily told his Twitter followers, and now he's going viral for it.

The Tweet, which has now been viewed over 56.3 million times, did not garner the reactions of support that Bass may have been expecting.

"He let his pregnant wife get on her hands on knees and clean up after his kids," one user asked, although it is unclear is Bass was on the flight.

"Commercial airlines are not your children's playground," another said bluntly. "Pick it up and take responsibility for your kids."

Others took an even harsher stance.

"This is the most pretentious, arrogant, self-absorbed tweet of all time. How dare parents have to clean up after their children's mess," one person said. "Good God, the more athletes tweet, the more I really don't want to watch professional sports anymore."

As the post began to garner more attention, United Airlines publicly replied to Bass on Twitter, assuring that the company would "look into this."

Hi there, Anthony. We certainly understand your concern and we'd like to look into this. When you have a moment, please DM your wife's confirmation number along with any additional details regarding her interaction with this crew member. ^ANhttps://t.co/Y6hG6u3i8R

Bass' wife Sydney is the sister of country singer Jesse James Decker, whoalso soundedoff about the incident on her Instagram story, saying that her sister was "completely humiliated and exhausted" as the other passengers watched her clean up the mess "on her hands and knees."

Decker claims that her sister was flying alone, per her Instagram stories. United Airlines has not formally issued a statement regarding the incident.

Things have not been calm in the skies in recent weeks.

Last month, a passengerwas arrestedon a flight between Los Angeles and Boston after he attempted to stab a flight attendant and open an emergency exit door in an unhinged attack.

United Airlineswas downjust shy of 3% in a one-year period as of Tuesday morning.
