Zach Bryan Sets Barstool Sports Flag on Fire Amid Ex-Girlfriend Abuse Allegations

Country music star Zach Bryan escalated tensions with his ex-girlfriend Brianna 'Chickenfry' LaPaglia and her employer Barstool Sports by posting a video on Instagram of himself burning a Barstool Sports "Saturdays Are For the Boys" flag and striking it with a golf club. The video was accompanied by Tyler Childers' song "Bitin' List," whose lyrics suggest animosity, and comes nine months after Brianna accused Bryan of emotional abuse during their relationship. Brianna responded to Bryan's video by posting on Instagram about locking her doors and researching how to file a restraining order against him. Barstool Sports founder Dave Portnoy, who has publicly criticized Bryan and released a diss track against him, mocked Bryan's stunt on social media, indicating ongoing hostility. The feud has deepened with involvement from Barstool personalities and has been fueled by social media exchanges, music releases, and public accusations involving large financial settlements and personal allegations. This public and heated dispute has drawn significant attention, highlighting the bitter fallout from the breakup and the parties’ continuing conflict.
