I confess...I had a hard time controlling my anger and frustration at the people sitting behind us at the Rockets game Wednesday night. They were extremely inebriated, and even more extremely obnoxious. The girl even hit my husband on the head with a "thunder stick" on purpose and began scooting forward to scream on purpose right close to our ears because she was "cheering on her team." She didn't even know when the Rockets had the ball! Not to mention the language coming out of their mouths. It would have made a sailor blush! Whatever bad words you can imagine, and I mean all of them, were flying.
My husband wouldn't tell the usher because he was sure they would end up in jail. I didn't have a problem with that, but he didn't want to be the one who got them thrown in jail (even though it was their own fault). Everyone within a ten seat radius was frustrated with them, but since we were right in front of them, they gave us a hard time. And I had been enjoying myself so much until they started their mess.
That's all. Boy, it feels good to get that off my chest.
People like that sure do ruin things for the rest of us, huh? Would have served them right to get thrown in jail--probably safer that letting them drive home.
ReplyDeleteI think I would have said something and I know Babe would have. He cannot stand that, unless he's the one doing it!
ReplyDeleteYour hubs must have the patience of a saint. I've have complained in a heartbeat!
ReplyDeleteThat sort of behavior is ridiculous. I hope your next game is drunk-people-free. Have a great weekend!
ReplyDeleteI so would have "told on them". I am that person now. Some people need to learn that lesson. Sorry you didn't enjoy the game.
ReplyDeleteIt's experiences like these that make me grateful for my blog. :) I love getting to vent.
ReplyDeleteWhat a bummer! Hope it didn't ruin your time at the game!!

lol @ Shawn
ReplyDeletei can't stand that kind of crap. people are so rude.
I am with you! I probably would have said something at some point. I know my husband would have, he would have done it in a very polite way at first. When it comes to drunks like that, he has little patience for them, but then again, he does work 3rd shift as a dispatcher and that is what he deals the most with...stupid rude drunks.
ReplyDeleteI hope you were able to enjoy the Rockets some.
What a bummer when someone has to ruin someone elses good time. So uncalled for! I'm sure at some point that night they got what they had coming... or at least I hope they did!
