More ugly comments were made about our players than there were about Avery actually.

They just kept trying to get him to acknowledge the fans in some way ... tip of the hat, the finger, something. They tried to "compliment" him on his hit/run ... they kept screaming about "other left fielders" would play along ... kept talking about missed catches (don't remember any big ones off hand) ... when the 3 run homer was hit the fans were like "Avery you missed it ... it was yours".

I guess they weren't UGLY to him ... like I said they were uglier to our own players .. just trying to get anything out of Avery. They did call him unsociable!

I must have been by you in left field because there was a 50-ish woman I heard say that - and she also was yelling that Jared Mitchell swings like a girl. She never said or yelled anything about UF - and she was dressed in purple and gold.

Sad to say I didn't notice what she was wearing ... I tried VERY hard to not turn around and stare at her.

At one point she said something about this is NOT BALLET I think when Mitchell was at bat. Bitch.

I think I could have slapped her ... she looked like she had something stuck up her arse. I swear ... pursed lips, bad attitude ... what the hell did she want???

Although my 16 year old did think it would be funny to yell GIANT PANSY (from Madagascar!) at Avery ... I told him to keep his mouth shut.

The GIANT PANSY?? Because I told him (my son) he better NOT yell that at the poor kid! He just thought it would be funny.

Couldn't describe her any better. She was with a preppy looking dude who was trying to heckle Avery - I didn't hear too much of it because I was listening to the radio broadcast - what I heard wasn't very funny or creative.

I won't be there tonight - if you're going you should print out this thread and hand it to her. Maybe she'll shut up tonight.

No we're not going .. we're from south of Lafayette and can't make it back today or tomorrow ... last night was the 1 and only game for us this year. It's a crying shame.

I was wishing the whole time that I'd brouht my headset ... I moved to the 3rd base bleachers at about the 7th so that I could keep an eye on my dtr in the play area AND watch the game. Glad to get away from that lady.

Brutal old ladies in left field


wow... wish I would have checked the rant earlier... we have been looking for those two... escaped a couple of weeks ago from East LA Mental... you should hear them when they are in lockdown, can not even hear yourself think, old biddy loonies... takes more than the legal dose to keep 'em quiet, and then we just run out early, NEVER get enough to last long enough with those two around... and all the other patients are sick of it, too, all the other patients will voluntarily be quiet and peaceful and downright friendly and, well, NORMAL, you know?... just so we can give those two the max dose plus just to keep 'em quiet... sheesh... feel sorry for the fans sitting in that half of the stadium... no wonder the game took 3.5 hours to complete... pitchers probably could not hear the ump calling balls and strikes!... if anyone sees them again, let me know... we'll have the cage... I mean, truck... I mean, ahem, we'll have the squad over there right away...

So are you making fun of me for sharing a story or are you thinking that these old bats should be pulling for their team???

I'm hoping it's the latter.

Its a baseball game. People are going to make comments and they may even make some that offend your sensibilities. Get over it. Unless they're making physical contact with you or using profanities in front of a child it must be tolerated. To think you can attend a sporting event and expect everyone there to conform to your code of acceptance is asking a bit much.

I can understand if an opposing team's fan does that to our players, and it wouldn't bother me a single bit. But it is a different story if you are dressed in Purple and Gold, and does these classless things to your own team. It is not fair to spoil other LSU fans' experience, IMO.

I respectfully disagree. Are we now in the business of censoring our fans? Of censoring opinions? These two women have every right in the world to speak their minds. So what if others don't agree. There's enough true obnoxious behavior occurring at these events to be concerned with two women voicing their opinion.
