I will never go to another NFL football game

Well, I went to see a chargers game in San Diego and I will tell you, I hated it! The damn traffic was obnoxious, my mom's friend wanted a damn key chain, I had to stand in a long line to get food which is overpriced as hell and some fans were taunting the Rams fans telling them to go back to Ohio. And getting out of the damn stadium wasn't pleasant either, someone yelled at my mom to move it even though she couldn't! I will never set foot at another NFL game, I have the impression they are all rude and obnixious people!

Is this the first football game you've ever been to? Yeah the consessions are pricey but you either have to budget or do without. (maybe if people stopped buying then they'll lower prices, but that won't happen) As far as the traffic goes - Just like a big concert you just gotta' expect it. Hopefully the game was decent enough that it's all worth it in the end. I've been to many games at Giant's stadium so I guess I'm just used to it :) <P ID="signature">______________

I've been to baseball games (Rangers baseball at Ameriquest Field in Ft. Worth) and traffic is brutal and food is overpriced. I'd bring my own snacks and drinks. Bottled water there is like $3.00 where at a gas station it's like $1.25 and my school sells it for $1.00. I could infer that football games would be much worse. BTW, the person who yelled at your mom and all those rude people are probably drunken bastards. Don't let it get to you.<P ID="signature">______________

The new 30 Year Old Virgin? Rank the Worst Fans!

Your experience sounds like every Concert & Sports Venue in the Country.

Which Sport has the rowdier Fans?
A) Baseball
B) Football
C) HOCKEY
D) Basketball
 
Hey, it could ALWAYS be worse. Just don't go to a concert at any facility owned by Clear Channel. You thought prices were high at the Football game?

Verizon Wireless Amphitheatre Charlotte (Prices from two years ago)
Bottled Water-$5 (CC removed all the water fountians)
Burger-$6
24 oz. CAN of Beer-$9
Traffic is a Pain in the Neck, taking upwords of 45-60 minutes to get out.

Now, compare that to some of the prices for concessions at a sporting event

Turner Field Atlanta (This Year)
Bottled Water-$3.50 (if I am not mistaken)
Nachos-$4 (you could get a coupon for a $1 off)
16 oz. Plastic Bottle of Beer-$6.50
Traffic isn't too bad normally, but leaving during a rain delay or if the game has been called is tough.<P ID="signature">______________

Ah but you've never been to any New England venue my friend!
All the New England pro venues are like this...
Yankee stadium too...
It's not just Clear Channel!

You forgot two choices:

E) English Soccer
F) Body Surfers at a Metallica concert on Dollar-a-Beer night


It's a close call, but I vote E by a (severed) eyelash.
 
I Forgot other Dangers...

The entire Idea about going to a Professional Sporting Event or Concert can lead to all sorts of unpredicted problems. Last Week that Race Track Accident where 2 were killed and 6 Injured. However to Drive from Orange to San Diego County and see bad bad Traffic, view over Priced Key chains, stand in long lines at the Concession stand, and getting Mom yelled at all sounds normal, eh except for the Mom part?
