Fat shaming definitely needs to become socially acceptable.


The 70's and 80's were great. "_________ shaming" was perfectly acceptable and even encouraged.

then we should have another disgruntled fan sitting on the other side

I'm sure there is, you assume that fan is going to 100% go to the local news about it too?

They had 2 seats together.

While a lot of you bad asses are saying you would have made a scene about it, and I don't really disagree with you.

You would have been a YouTube sensation the next day, and not portrayed in a favorable light.

Yea, the pic and part of the article made it seem like they had 2 on each side, which wouldn't make sense.

But the 2 had seats 12 and 13, they showed their tickets in the video.

Dude in the Cowboy hat to the right of fatty isn't much better. And is probably blocking some of the view of the people behind his with his orange fat crown.

They ought to have the same rule as some airlines, if your over a certain weight, you have to buy two or three tickets.

This is the sole reason my dad and I have seat backs. They work wonders to claim your seat.

This is lower bowl east side. We all have seatbacks. She’s spilling over from her seat, across the gap, into my seat

Screw him. I paid a ton of money for those seats. I wasn't about to stand sideways the whole game or force my SO to stand because some fatty couldn't fit in their seat.

Do people that large wear flip flops because they can't reach their feet to put on socks and shoes

Whoa, chill with the fat shaming

I guarantee you most people of size have tried everything to lose weight, from diets to workout programs, medicine, and even surgery, but to no avail. Fact of the matter is that if you have large genetics you're gonna be stuck with the weight

Genetics and Dna is just starting to be understood but what we do know is that there is a large genetic component to obesity. And it's pretty obvious, that's why you will see whole large families while others are small

It is more like bad habits are learned, so if your parents are lazy and don't promote proper eating habits, their kids will be the same way.

Handicapped areas are for HANDICAPPED people, not FAT people. Being fat isn't a handicap


I may sound heartless, but I totally agree with this. The majority of the people I see parking in handicap spaces are morbidly obese. Pisses me off when you see these folks park their vehicles, resplendent with Dunkin Donut boxes and McDonald wrappers smashed on the dashboard parking in the handicap zones, while the 90-year-old with two bad hips and using a walker has to travel from the other side of the parking because the handicap spaces are taken.

Also, pisses me off when the airlines want to charge you extra $$$$ because you're 1 pound over on your luggage, but the 450-pound dude behind you in line doesn't have to pay extra for his seat and the two seats he's gonna be spilling over into. Like there's more of a chance from the weight of your 3 extra pairs of socks causing the plane to crash than his extra quarter ton added to the flight.

Add a BO stench to that massive fatty and you have the last scenario of a Bama fatty in front of me last year in TS.... wide and fat and rocked back and forth and shoved people around him with his odoriferous lardassedness! Disgusting.

Oh, he was black.

Case for partitioned seats like in a theater with an armrest between each seat. But seriously, I would have contacted someone with authority inside the ballpark and explained the situation to them.
