Boston (In a nutshell)
For those who do not know, I am from New York, root for the Yankees and thus hate everything about Boston.
Deadspin.com, a sports related blog that is partners with Gizmodo (tech stuff), Lifehacker (MacGyver stuff) and Consumerist (not spending money stuff) does a regular feature called 'Why Your Stadium Sucks.' This week it's Fenway Stadium, the cesspool breeding ground of Red Sox nation and the perfect target for taking down a fair amount of Bostonians. I just wanted to share with you one comment someone made about a personal experience they had at Fenway. Enjoy...
"Me and a friend of mine were at a Red Sox game in Boston in the spring (I think) of 2005, about 10 rows back in the center field bleachers. Two drunk Tawmmys from Quinzee were sitting directly behind us, and spend the entire game yelling at Johnny Damon for having a little girl arm (while true, he's on your team, no?). One says to the other "I BET I COULD THROW A BALL FACKIN FAHHTHER THAN JANNY DAMON." Tawmmy Numbah 2 isn't convinced, neither am I, nor is my friend. Tawmmy 1 then bets my friend ten whole dollars that he can reach the infield on a throw. My friend laughs and takes the bet, as there's no way in hell this moron is actually going to try this during a game, right?
Wrong. Tawmmy #1 disappears for a while, and returns with a fresh beer and a souvenir baseball. My friend and I exchange a quick "No fucking way" look, and Tawmmy lets fly the ball. Sure enough, it hits the infield. Missing the back of Edgar Rentaria's head by about 6 inches . A man of his word, my friend pays up while Tawmmy gets dragged off by the cops, screaming "FACKIN' TOLDYA!"
