This past Thursday night, the Hub, Caroline, Minh and I went to see the LA Dodgers. It wasn't any ole Dodger Game but the last home game of the season! What does that mean? It means the stadium was C-rowded!!! As in sold out. As in 52,000 people in the same spot craziness! I am in no way a patient person so having to wait 45 minutes in the car to even get to the stadium was exasperating! The stadium is only a mile or two from my house so you can imagine the super slow crawl to the stadium.
After arriving we find that our preferred parking is only good if you get there before the stadium sells out. Having never been to a sold out game before this has never come up as an issue. We drove around, and around, and around and finally found a space. We got to our seats in time for the bottom of the 4th inning and lucky us, we got to sit by the biggest a**hole in the history of Dodger fans. Sorry to swear but really I had to use this word to describe this man.
When we arrived we saw four seats open so assuming they were ours we sat in them. Then this guys turns to the Hub in a super snotty way and says, "Umm you're in my seats. My wife is coming and you're in her seats. And then he goes on to say I think I know you are in the wrong seats." HOLD ON MISTER! Why this guy had to be a jerk from the start I don't know? So we turned and booted the two little kids that were sitting in our seats out. We looked at him and sneered in our heads "Why did you have to make us kick those two cute little kids out? P.S. there is no way your wife is coming at this point as we barely got in, you jerk!"
Even after we got in our correct seats, he kept turning to us to say that his wife was coming. As I am a complainer myself, I recognized like and realized that this type of complainer was the kind that doesn't shut up about complaining about stuff. At least I realize I am getting bad and shut up. But he complained about everything and really loudly. I think everyone around us was annoyed. What was annoying to me was that this guy brought a radio and had it pushed up against his ear so he cold hear the game. Perhaps, if he ever shut up he would be able to hear the game perfectly fine. Just a thought?
He even complained people were hitting too many of those beach balls around to the security guards. (um - Kill Joy) Really buddy? Really? Well, he really pissed me off when the Hub got up to pee and he asked the man to excuse him to let him in the isle. When the Hub left, said idiot complained that people should exit their side of the seats. He went on and on about it. I really wanted to throw my peanuts at him. The Hub came back and I told him what the guy said. He was about to get into it when I told him it wasn't worth it. The Hub, for your reference either had to climb over three people to get out or climb over him and his little kid, who took up no space and half of the time wasn't even in his own seat!
Anyhoo, bad seating partners aside we watched the Dodgers win the Western Conference! Oddly, they lost the game against the San Diego Padres that night but they made the championships! Go Dodgers!!!!
