It's idiots like this that make it so you don't want to bring your family to an NFL game anymore unless you're in a box or in club level.
I would blame ticket prices first.

Happy now? bigtee1975 08-30-2010, 11:40 AM I'm all for rooting for the team and having fun doing it, but when the language becomes an endless tirade of profanity laced expressions, it ceases to be fun anymore. It's not condusive to the experience of which the games were intended to provide. Totally agreed. I want nothing more than to drive up to Landover with my 9 year old son to attend a game. But I'm not sure how worth the 6 hour drive, ticket price, parking hassle, etc would be if I have to constantly worry about a drunk, or a fan that can't keep his language under control. I'm not saying treat this as a game of golf or the opera, because I can get as loud and boisterous as the rest of the fans, but I keep myself in control (no matter how horrible we play, or how many stupid mistakes we make), especially with youth present. irish 08-30-2010, 12:49 PM Totally agreed.

Bad language is the least of my worries when it comes to taking a young kid or my wife to a game, my real concern was always the drunk who was itching for a fight because he overheard you say something he didnt agree with. The combination of a violent game and booze seemed to cause some guys (usually on their only day they get a hall pass) to grow beer muscles and get violent.

I usually get to one game at Fed-Ex per year and the obnoxious drunk is now more the norm rather than the exception. saden1 08-30-2010, 02:16 PM Call security and have them removed from the game. Problem solved. firstdown 08-30-2010, 02:36 PM NFL games are not for families. Why not? firstdown 08-30-2010, 02:41 PM I have been to around 14 games at fedEx and maybe only once or twice would I have had an issue with having a child with me. Most Of the time people around use have been pretty good. If in those cases I had children I would have addressed the issue. InsaneBoost 08-30-2010, 02:44 PM Honestly at this point point a nice 50 inch HD TV and my couch sounds better then actually going to a game. I go to one game a year and always ask myself why afterwords. Really I only see this problem at preseason games and somehow it's EVERY preseason game. I guess it's because the tickets go for so much cheaper and ANYONE can buy them. I mean face it, $10-$30 upper levels and lower levels, who wouldn't right? I mean I see some during regular season, but for the most part it's just preseason games I see these types of loony toons. |
