My husband and I went to a baseball game on Thursday night. The Minnesota Twins are playing The NY Yankees for the National League Division title...ya still with me?
Good.
While at the game, we witnessed a little "competitive team spirit" between a Twins and Yankees fan. Let's just say, I am glad my kids weren't along because there were many not-so-kid-friendly words flying across the seats. It was uncomfortable, and unnecessary.
It didn't take long before I noticed the Twins Fan was trying to make nice with Yankee Guy and his buddies. With what else? Beer. Yep, he sent over a round of beer. As I am sure you can imagine...it worked. It wasn't long before Yankee guy was out of his seat and shaking hands jovially with Twins Fan. Believe it or not, it was kind of a sweet moment. You just don't see that everyday.
See, told you I wasn't going to actually 'talk baseball.'
Like I said, the behavior of the two men was inappropriate, and I am very glad my kids were not along. Have you ever been in an inappropriate situation with your kids at a professional sporting event?

Man, those Yankee fans, Boston fans are craaaazy too! Dare I say that the Angels fans are wonderful, lovely people, so we don't get a lot of that ;). He, he, he.
Thank goodness your kids weren't there - the one and only game that we have been too - the exact same thing happened. There wasn't any reconciliation though.
