Matt Berringer comes out as gay.

<< < (3/4) > >>

But is it really that surprising? Seems like 90% of the heckling kids do at skateparks involves calling each other faggots or saying how gay something is or was. I'd argue Matt isn't the first openly gay pro, definitly the most well known but not the first.

Edit: I mean even at the beginning of the show when the dude is goin on about what TJ should have said to the dog owner he calls the dude a cock sucker, no wonder people don't wanna come out.

I couldn't watch the episode since TJ lavin is so full of shit and that other guy was horrific, definitely pushing matt onto a corner.

Patty:
I heard from a friend Morgan Wade won’t have anything to do with Matt Beringer now. Another closed minded, gun toting Christian judging people.

weedbix:
lmao if that's true, now petty

bluebmx:
If he was a top rider right now and came out he'd get roasted in social media, but probably not get dropped by sponsors. Back in the early 2000's though... I think he very easily could have had some contract not get renewed or have some brands feel like they were "going in different directions". He's a legend, and he seems to be at peace with it all and has a husband. Happy to see that.
