kiss cam

Stadium smooch spotlight

A kiss cam is a stadium feature where cameras find couples in the crowd and display them on the big screen, with the expectation that they'll kiss for entertainment.

The moment creates social pressure to perform: The kiss cam found us and the whole stadium was watching.

Targets who refuse or aren't actually couples provide awkward comedy.
