Cheap Seats And Beer

Major League Baseball wants to crack down on fans moving from cheap seats to better seats, even late in the game. Yes, keep the riff raff out of my section because they disturb my neighbors who are talking on their cell phones. There is nothing worse than some snot nose youth who just wants to see his favorite player up close. Hey Kid, have your dad pay for good seats. What do you mean, he can't afford it? He could if you did not have to have so damn many drinks and ice cream bars. Did you know poverty is cyclical? That means you are probably going to grow up to be poor also. Maybe you aren't poor; maybe your daddy just has a mistress and would rather spend money on her than you or Mommy.

Seriously, this type of fascism makes me want to take usehrs down. Nothing burns me more than some old usher biding time to his dirt nap chasing kids down who move closer to the game in the later innings. Only a fucking asshole would do that, and many of these fossils take a perverse pride in dampering a kid's spirits. Hey, it is one thing is you are shooing away a goofy adult with a mitt who snuck down to snag a ball, but leave the kids alone.

Major League Baseball wants to appear that
they are doing something about cracking down on drunk driving. Here is a newsflash, instead of punishing everyone by reducing the size of a beer (I am sure the price won't be reduced), why not go after the drunks? Instead of ticketing people for tail gaiting to increase city revenues, send the cops after the assholes who are shitfaced. Yes, I know that means the cops will be coming after my friends and family members, but so be it. Sometimes they need straightening up. Most importantly, go after the shitheads on commission who are selling the beer to the drunks. A good bartender knows when to cut off people, and everyone in the bar breathes a sigh of relief. Beer vendors don't give a shit about what goes on in the stands, they make 20% on all their sales, which is why Wrigley Field in a large urinal by the eighth inning.

Of course,
not giving your fans any access to beer would be rather extreme, but that is what the Marlins are doing to some of the brave souls who show up. Is anyone still alive in the Marlins' management?
