Opie is happy to be rid of the worm

It's clearly some sort of weird family joke that Opie filmed without letting anybody know. Nobody appears to be taking it seriously and Opie exposed it to his following in an attempt to get a viral video.

That was my conclusion, too, and the Opester motherfucked them by posting a dumb inside thing to social media. This was also in 2010 back before everyone became aware/paranoid of people flashing their phones around at private events

It always looked like some gay frat boy shit to me. But this was absolutely Opie being the creepy old guy in the room recording it during his viral video obsession phase

Opie would film his retarded daughter dying if it meant he would get another $3 from YouTube next month.

Naah, Opie wasn't doing that for the shekels. He desperately wanted a viral video because it would have been validation that he personally was entertaining and wasn't just riding Ant/Jim's coattails.

Opie constantly re-uploaded monetized old content to make side cash. He did it for years during the show all while bitching that Steve C, who hosted their content for free, was making money off of their brand.

You guys just don't get cringe humour. Opie is the last of a dying breed. Literal infants.

I bet these haters even missed the brilliance of the Basketball Trick Shot video.

Haters cope, seethe and dilate.

Ope was making 7 figures at that point. He wasn't uploading that shit to make money. He was trying to use the O&A content to build his OpieRaqio brand/channel. This had *everything* to do with his personal branding and little to nothing to do with the peanut income stream it was bringing in.
