Sox etiquette

[GoSox05]

I like to do headstands whenever the Sox turn a double play.

Grinder Rule #41 :  Never Leave your seat in the middle of the inning, the real fans will GET YOU.

 

 

I'll go use the restroom whenever I need to go. I'll try not to interfere with people, but I'm not gonna make myself uncomfortable or wait til between innings when the line is 30 mins. long. God forbid you miss one pitch of a 9 inning, 3 hour long game. GMAFB.

I leave in the middle of the inning all the time. Mound chats, a batter taking to long to get in the box, etc.. Maybe the rule should read never leave your seat in the middle of action...

[RockRaines]

rule number 1: STAY IN YOUR SEAT UNTIL A PAUSE IN PLAY

^^^^^

thats the only time I yell at people.

[SoCalSouthSider59]

This is a matter of common sense and common courtesy.  However, both are becoming more uncommon every day.

And not just at the Ballpark, either......... :headshake

 

IN 2006!!!!!!

Geez, ever heard of Depends?

LOL. Even those get soggy after a while. It's no fun for anyone around me.

People that do this are self-centered idiotic selfish dirty cocksucking pricks that ruin the event for the rest of us. When these people get good and ready to bring their self-centered idiotic selfish dirty cocksucking prick asses back from the restroom they usually don't care what is going on in the game when they come back and they go right to their seats. Therefore blocking everyone from seeing what is going on twice. So yeah, thats right, do what you want you self-centered idiotic selfish dirty cocksucking pricks!!!

Someone should dig up that huge thread we had about fan etiquette a while back. Fantastic discussion.

 

I was thinking the same thing, this thread was like deja vu of my first days on this site.

rule number 1: STAY IN YOUR SEAT UNTIL A PAUSE IN PLAY

 

Really hot chicks, in early innings, are exempt from this, especially if they are bringing beer.

 

Wait, maybe that shouldn't be in green . . .

If it wasn't for the fact that you can name call and string profanity together, I'd think you were wrong.

Next time I have to piss, I'll piss on a 'REAL' fan sitting in front of me. I'm sure they'll understand that I didn't want to ruin the event for everyone by walking to the restroom.

[Steve9347]

alright, let me rephrase my statement

 

Rule 1:  Don't stand up to get something to eat/drink or go to the bathroom in the middle of a play.  It happens way too often at the park.

 

Stand up and cheer at the right moments, I'm sure you won't be the only one in the stadium doing it.

 

 

as Ian Malcolm said of the "blood sucking lawyer" in Jurassic Park, "when you gotta go, you gotta go."

WHo did I name call? People that would do such things as you stated? OK, so I did. And yes, I can string profanity together very well. This issues is a big one with me. I can't stand people that do this. But, wow your bladder is that weak? Ok, then I will forgive you and you are allowed to go to the bathroom. If this is the case then you have other issues to deal with. I am sorry for you. Take care of yourself.

Didn't we have a thread once to do with pet peeves when you're at the ballpark (probably was quite a long time ago though).

 

There were some funny ones in there.

Yes there was, this was one of them that almost everyone agreed with I believe.

I have this wacky habit of drinking a lot of beer at the game. I know it sounds radical but I think it might catch on and pretty soon a lot of other people will be doing it too.

Thx for understanding my weak bladder condition, for granting me permission to go and I appreciate the pity. I will now go deal with my other issues.

Hmm, that doesn't seem all that wacky to me to be honest. I know many that do this including myself at times. For some reason I and others are able to hold it without a problem. This may come with practice and experience. You just may not be there yet. I never had this problem, so I wouldn't know. Your other issues I am referring to may include but may not end with such things as bed wetting. For that I feel sorry for you and issue you my greatest sympathy as things like this can become quite embarressing for others, such as yourself, with this problem. Please take care of yourself and good luck with this/these issue(s).

Who told you about the bed wetting??!!

My biggest problem is that whenever I'm in a building that probably has 50 bathrooms in it and I need to piss, I tend to fly off the handle and actually make my way to one. In the future, I'll try to make sure the guy behind me doesn't miss a millisecond of the game. Thx for taking such an interest in my bladder.

You basically told me about it. Haven't you been following what you have been writing. I am just putting two and two together here. Jeez, try to keep up.

 

There is nothing wrong with going to the bathroom when you need to, however I am sure the need to go to the bathroom does not just hit you. You don't just feel it and say "HOT DAMN!,, I gotta take a piss!!, get me outta here!!!!" It is not a spur of the moment type thing. Most of us are able to hold it or tell beforehand that we are getting full and we will have to go soon.

 

Please try to wait not just for the person behind you, but for those sitting near the isle whose views you may be blocking while making your way up and down. Just a thought here, but how about respecting others around you when you are in a public area. This is something that should have been taught to you as a youngster. For some reason it seemed to have went in one ear and out the other with you. Don't be an ignorant selfish SOB like so many others around the park.

It happens to old people all the time, just ask FlaSoxxJim and YAS

Do you always need green to detect sarcasm?

Let's try it again. I don't try to hold it at all. I try to be as inconsiderate as possible to those around me. In fact, I try to make sure I go in the bottom of every inning, you know when the Sox are hitting.
