0Sunday at the LSU baseball game in the first inning, a guy and his lady were walking up the steps in the aisle in the grandstand. The lady stops walking and starts texting on her cell phone. This is while the game is going on.
She was blocking my view of the pitcher and catcher. I missed one pitch so I looked up at her from my seat and said, "There's a game going on."
She looked down, obviously perturbed to be interrupted from her texting and said, "Are you talking to me? You can't be talking to me!"
I said, (maybe a little louder than I needed to) "Yes, ma'am, I am talking to you. We can't see with you standing there. Could you please move or sit down?"
She started getting sassy mouthed but before I could say anything else she took a couple of steps up the aisle and stopped again.
A man two rows up had heard what was said and said to her, "Now I'm talking to you. Move your arse out of the way!" She moved along. The guy she was with never said a word during the exchange.
What would you have done? Was I wrong to ask her to move so that I could see the game?
BTW, she was still texting as she went up the steps.

on 4/27/09 at 10:36 am to LSURussianThere was nothing wrong with what you did and you were totally in the right and when she responded with that smartass comment you showed more restraint than I would have had but then again I have anger management issues...

I would say I was polite when I first said "There's a game going on,"......thinking she would get the hint and move along.
When she snapped back a me as if I were the bad guy who was causing her a problem, I'd say I raised my voice more than a bit, enough so that the guy two rows above me heard what I said. Of course, she was nearly screaming by that point. I felt bad afterwards, but damn! I think it's rude for someone to stand in the aisle and block a group of fans' view of the play. I suppose the fact that she was just standing there texting also irritated me more than it would have if she had stopped to look for her aisle or her seat or something.

on 4/27/09 at 10:45 am to LSURussianYou were right and she was dead wrong and downright rude!! I probably would have said "Down in front!"
