Frequent "Shark Tank" guest judge and billionaire tech mogul Chris Sacca is saying that he didn't throw a tantrum after being turned away from "Hamilton."
Sacca denied a report that he allegedly threw a fit when he and his wife, Chrystal English, were denied admission into Broadway's biggest hit show when it was discovered that the tickets he bought from StubHub were counterfeit.
According to the New York Post, Sacca didn't take no for an answer when he was denied entry because of the fake tickets.
The newspaper's source said that Sacca repeatedly asked, “Do you know who I am?”
“He was getting really angry at the ticket scanner,” the eyewitness said of the alleged encounter, describing the mogul's tone as "condescending." “He said he was a ‘shark’ on ‘Shark Tank’ and warned it wouldn’t be good if they couldn’t get in."
The unnamed source said that Sacca proceeded to cause a scene with the person scanning tickets, and then asked for a manager. The theater's higher-up also told Sacca he couldn't get in and warned him about buying secondhand tickets.
Sacca took to Twitter Monday and called the story "bulls--- gossip" and said it "didn't happen" on Twitter.
@azdeandobbs Yo, Dean. Bullshit gossip. But thanks for the shoutout.

Nothing like waking up to made up articles. My wife of five years is my "girlfriend" and taking 20 selfies with staff is a "tantrum." Haha.
