An angry Chris Christie has been caught on camera getting up into a Chicago Cubs fan's face while holding a bowl of nachos after he was called a 'hypocrite'.

The New Jersey Governor was in Milwaukee at Miller Stadium on Sunday afternoon for the Cubs-Brewers game.

Footage shows him leaning in just inches from Cubs fan Brad Joseph's face in the stands as he balanced the tray of loaded nachos.

The video was filmed and posted on Twitter by WISN journalist Ben Hutchinson - a relative of Joseph's - who said Christie was being 'razzed' by some in the crowd.

It captured the end of what appeared to be a heated confrontation with the baseball fan.

'Yeah, you're a big shot,' Christie could be heard saying.

He then pulled back and walked away down the stairs to his seat with his nachos still in tact.

'I appreciate that,' Joseph replied as Christie retreated.

'When he initially was going up the stairs I yelled his name. He was quite a bit past me, and 30 feet away I yelled his name and told him that he sucked... I called him a hypocrite because I thought it needed to be said,' Joseph told WISN.

'He turned around back towards me and got in my face for what seemed like a long time, but was probably only about 30 seconds or a minute. (He) was yelling at me.

'First he told me, "Why don't you have another beer?" which I thought was a decent come back, and I thought that was kind of funny. Then he started calling me a tough guy.'

Other fans surrounding the man could be heard laughing loudly as Christie got within inches of his face.

Christie, whose son works for the Milwaukee Brewers, was also booed at a Mets game in New York earlier this month.

He was heckled after he caught a foul ball while sitting in the third row in the third inning without even getting out of his seat.

Christie celebrated the left-hand catch with awkward high-fives and an enthusiastic handshake with a friend before turning to give the ball to a child who was sitting in the rows behind him.

The Governor has seen his popularity dwindle ever since he was photographed lounging with his family over the Fourth of July weekend on a private stretch of sand despite closing New Jersey's beaches to the public in a standoff over funding.

The private beach is part of the state-owned governor's summer mansion in Island Beach Park.

Christie had closed the rest of the park and other homeowners were told to leave as he shut down non-essential state-funded programs in the midst of the budget battle.

The two-term Republican governor said earlier this week that public outcry over the photos had 'upset his children more than anything else' since he's been in office.
