well last night (thursday) i got back from florida, and rather than head home i went to my favorite place in the world to watch the cubs take on the hated cardinals
i'm not sure how many entries i've written this season about going to wrigley and seeing the cubs suck ass, but i know it has been a few. it's hard to keep track, but i think my record this year is either 1-6 or 1-7. thus it was no great surprise last night when the cardinals scored 3 runs in the first inning before we had even sat down
as usual, the game dragged along and was boring, up until the 8th. during the top of the 8th, a group of cardinals fans in our section began chanting "LETS GO CARDINALS"
there are 2 things i love in life:
1 of these things is the chicago cubs, and the other is yelling. i thought for a moment about what i could possibly yell that would piss off the cardinals fans, and i believe i came up with a good response. to counter the LETS GO CARDINALS chants, i began chanting SWEPT BY BOSTON, an obvious reference to stl's pitiful effort in last years world series. this should tell you how much i hate the cardinals, because if you know me at all, you know about my controversially favorable opinion of the new york yankees. pro-boston chants are just wrong, but in this case, completely justifiable
to put it simply, the chant worked. it completely riled up a slightly mentally challenged (at least he seemed to be that way) cardinals fan (he had a major lisp too), and he immediately started spewing all sorts of bad words in the general direction of myself, my brother, and the 4 cubs fans sitting in front of us.
in fact, he told me to fuck the following things:
-myself
-my brother
-men
-the chicago cubs
-steve bartman
-chip caray and steve stone (former cubs tv broadcasters)
-a billygoat
-a cheeseburger
-a billygoat and a cheeseburger at the same time
try to picture the absurdity: a lone cardinals fan screams YOU GUYS ARE FAGGOTH GO FUCK A CHEESEBURGER.. i'm not making this up people. other gems included him saying bad things about the city of chicago, which didn't really surprise me because hey cubs and cardinals fans just don't get along. with that in mind, i asked him where he was from
retarded cardinals fan: FUCK THITH CITY
mark: where are you from?
retarded cardinals fan: HERE
mark: ok so why don't you move?
retarded cardinals fan: FUCK YOU FAGGOT ILL LIVE WHEREVER I WANT
he also informed us that we were all drunk athholeth (assholes), and that he didn't drink but if he did he would have thrown all of our attheth (asses) onto the field
mmhmm
eventually he went and got security, who after asking us a few questions, determined that he was the one who was out of line (WOW SURPRISE), and removed him from the section. the best part of all of this was the drunkass townie cardinals fan who came up after the dude got removed, shook my hand and apologized on behalf of all the non-retarded cardinals fans in the section
God Bless America
