TNT sports reporters must have had no idea that their Knicks – Trail Blazers coverage would become famous for their broadcast featuring an appearance by a cheeky fan.

A man sitting behind the broadcast crew vigorously picks his nose as the commentary begins. Once he realizes that the gesture has been seen on live TV, the daredevil tries to recover and suavely winks at the camera.

His seductive look as he turns to the cameraman and acts like nothing out of the ordinary has happened is priceless.

In fact, YouTube users can't seem to get enough of the mystery man, and about half-a-million have tuned in to watch him in less than two days.

The New York Knicks registered a 121-79 win on the Portland Trail Blazers during the Thursday, March 14 game, International Business Times reports.
