The fan fanatic.
My favorite type of sports fan is the minor sport fan fanatic. They show up at the sports bar dressed in their team gear and when the bars 15 televisions arent showing their sport they go balistic and demand the center television. Because the english premier soccer league is what they live for. Last march i got together with a buddy to watch March madness and some guy comes in the bar dressed like a combat vet looks at the tv screen and says to my buddy WHAT?? your not watching the wrestling championship?? Dont you know that Joe schmoe is wrestling in the final!!! We both looked at each other with a mixture of surprise revulsion and confusion. Dont get me wrong i dont begrudge you for being a fan of a sport you love but dont act like an idiot when i dont share your passion. This fan is convinced that if i just opened my mind and went to see POLO i would fall in love with it. That might happen if all other sports were gone and my other option was watching a documentry on weather patterns on educational television. Let me and the rest of the world watch the sports we care about and we can set you up with your buddies in the backroom of the bar where you can shoot for a takedown with plenty of space. Just dont make too much noise because the ballgame is on. Thanks.
