Initially shared on TikTok, the video quickly garnered millions of views as it circulated across various platforms, leading to a flurry of memes and humorous discussions on television shows.

The company also clarified that other employees were not present in the footage, dispelling additional rumors circulating online. Meanwhile, fake statements purportedly from Byron have also gone viral, adding to the ongoing intrigue surrounding the situation.
