Baseball Conversations

So yesterday afternoon DH and I ventured downtown to the ball game to celebrate my BFF's birthday.  I normally do not get too much into baseball except that they were playing my hometown team and well since it has been forever since I have gotten there for a game the next best thing is to see them here.  Of course this is the 2nd time I have had this opportunity and my team lost again, my brother may ban me from these games if this continues!  Anywho, one really observes some interesting characters during these games, for example:

Interesting Character Number 1:
Skinny Guy
As the game progresses it  is normal for people to get up to use the restroom, get a bite to eat or get a drink.  However, how many times do you really need to get up?  AND everytime you get up, as you walk through the aisle do you really need to tell people "don't get up, I'm skinny I can go right through" EVERY SINGLE PASS THROUGH?  Seriously!?!?!?!?!  The first time he went by I looked at DH and said "I think he just called me fat!", The second time DH and I were not in our seats so we missed it but my BFF said he was being annoying, The third time he announced his skinniness I calmly stated that he "probably needed to eat a cheeseburger or two otherwise I may have to shove my skinny straw up his skinny you know what!"  What a tool box!  Oh and by the way - guys: skinny jeans are not for you, please stop wearing our pants!

Interesting Character Numbers 2 and 3:
Ladies Lacking a Filter
Behind us, were 2 women in my best guess to be in their 30's.  Their conversations spanned the topic spectrum.  My first favorite being about the one woman's two children who are "a handful" but she is very excited because her hubby is working on his MBA and she has decided that her undergrad in philosophy and chemistry just isn't doing it for her and will begin working on her Master's in Special Education this fall.  REALLY?!?!?!?!?  How is that even remotely related?  My BFF (who teaches with me) and I were cracking up!!!!  Don't worry though, it didn't stop here!!!  While BFF and I were at the bathroom these women decided to discuss the one woman's fertility treatmentss and her frozen eggs!  WHO has these types of conversations IN PUBLIC????  Are they for real???

Interesting Character Number 4:
Wave Guy
This poor guy was having a wonderful time.  He was throwing back the brews with his buddies and generally enjoying the game.  But there comes a time where bystanders such as myself really start to feel sorry for him.  All he really wanted was to start the wave.  Our section cooperated so as to appease him but once it left our section the wave became nothing more than a few straggling ripples in a giant pond.  Eventually someone who works at the the ballpark came and started to escort him out.  The guy's wife or girlfriend was with the employee so we aren't really sure if they were just messing with him but he left.  After he walked away there was about a 3 section wave and a huge cheer.  Poor guy!  

All in all we had an amazing time!  Unfortunately people are probably not safe sitting around me as I suck it all in and share with the rest of the world!!!!
