Braith Anasta involved in fire extinguisher incident at Sydney pub

On a Friday night at the Robin Hood Hotel in Waverley, former NRL star Braith Anasta was attending a Footy Finals party sponsored by Fireball whisky when an unexpected incident occurred. A patron, in his late twenties, removed a fire extinguisher from the wall and began spraying it around the front bar, soaking guests and disrupting the event. Witnesses, including Daily Mail Australia reporter Ali Daher, described the scene as chaotic and shocking, with attendees left disappointed as their night was ruined. Anasta, who was at the bar when the incident began, initially thought the actions might be part of the festivities. However, as the situation escalated, he intervened by grabbing the man by the collar and performing a citizen's arrest until police arrived. His quick response demonstrated his characteristic aggression and willingness to protect others in a chaotic situation. The police were contacted for comments regarding the incident, which highlighted the unexpected nature of the night. Anasta, known for his successful NRL career and commentary work, had been promoting the Fireball Bubbler earlier that week, emphasizing the need for a more enjoyable game day experience. This incident serves as a reminder of how quickly a fun event can turn chaotic and the importance of vigilance in public spaces. Anasta's actions not only prevented further disruption but also showcased his commitment to ensuring the safety of those around him.
