For fans who like to watch the game

For all of you that actually like to watch the game when you go to a major league ballpark, you'll love this post by The LoHud Yankees Blog - "10 people to avoid at the ballpark." Here is a list, but be sure to read the original post for some great George Carlin-like commentary.
  1. People who bring their vanity license plates to games and wave them around.
  2. Drunks.
  3. Know-it-alls.
  4. People who keep getting up.
  5. People waving signs trying to get on ESPN or Fox.
  6. Cell phone users - two types: (a) First is the guy who has a friend in the crowd eight sections over and calls him so they can wave at each other; and (b) Then there are the people who sit in box seats and call their friends watching at home and wave every time the camera catches them in the background.
  7. People who swear at the players.
  8. People trying to start The Wave.
  9. Trampy girls at batting practice. (We don't see this much in the Midwest)
  10. Adult autograph seekers. (I have to disagree with this one... I love getting autographs!)
