Open Wide

I’m not sure if this is funny, sick, disturbing, angering, or a combination of all and more of these things. I was at a baseball game that had more empty seats in the stadium than church pews on New Year’s Day (at least in my church!). The team I was rooting for was winning, and the game was about half over. There were two GREAT looking young men sitting a few rows ahead and to the left of me. I couldn’t help but notice they were more into their Words With Friends games then they were the baseball game. I quickly lost interest in them and continued watching the game and talking with my friend who, by the way, had no idea what WWF was.

An inning or two later I heard these two Abercrombie models cackling like hyenas. I casually glanced down to see what they were doing and I noticed that they were both doing something with their phones and trying to stifle their laughter. When I realized what they were doing I didn’t know whether I should laugh or smack them over the head with a baseball bat.

A few rows below them was a group of friends enjoying the baseball game and all its accoutrements including ice-cold coke, hotdogs with mustard an sauerkraut, pink and blue swirled cotton candy, and delicious, buttery popcorn. Two of the women were very large and enjoying their snackage while the game was in progress. Normally, this wouldn’t register as strange at all but what the models were doing made me stop and think.

Fritz and Franz were using their phones to snap pictures and take video of these girls. Now, I am guilty for snapping a photo or two (I think I’ve mentioned it in two of previous blog postings) but this time it was different. These guys were doing it in a malicious, look at these heifers way, and that isn’t cool. I watched them post to Facebook and text these videos and pictures to their friends.

Then I wondered, how many people have snapped a photo or two of me? Is there any way for me to round them all up and start a scrapbook?

In a situation like this, who do you get angry at?
