Do you mean that we are actually there for the game?

Now you're getting into the spirit of things. Hahaha. Just quit your rationalization of grilling during a baseball game as a blight upon the sport. You're just wrong and have no frame of reference, which is apparent by you ignorance on the matter. As a baseball fan you should realize that there are breaks between innings and that pitching changes due occur.

I always thought that the ticket gave you admission to the BBQ and since it is always next to that pristine groomed pasture, the kids just naturally pick sides and a ballgame broke out! That explains all those old people sitting in that amphitheater with no stage.

Grills

LIGHTING UP A GRILL IN THE MIDDLE OF A GAME YOU ARE AT LIVE, DOES NOT SAY I'M PAYING ATTENTION TO THE GAME.

To summarize something so simple that even you will understand, most of the grills are already going when the game starts. They get there before the game to light them. A lot of people open their grills when the opposing team takes the field to possibly create a distraction to the outfielders from the smoke. You know, like the people behind the goal waving pompoms and **** do at a basketball game. Does it work? Of course it doesn't, but it's just a way for some average Joe fans to feel like they are part of the game. Get it?

Hahaha. I admire your effort, but that may apply more to VMI than the Hullabaloos.

I was taking a jab at the state of Virginia. Admittedly I know little about Virginia except their proud history in military. I mean really, what are some Virginia stereotypes I can throw back at them?

You sure you didn't graduate from UVA? Us fans who did not graduate from UVA are the base of our fan base. It surely isn't a bunch of tie wearing whiners who only come to games to be seen. I'll tell you the same as I tell those self righteous pricks. I AM A UVA FAN, I HAVE BEEN FOR 45+ YEARS. I was accepted to UVA but because I was the son of a single parent I had to go to a Jr. college and eventually get my degree from a cheaper school. Doesn't make me any less of a fan. I went to football camp at UVA when we sucked even worse in football than we do now (pre George Welsh) and I grew up 8 miles from VT and NEVER dreamed of being a VT fan. Get over it. I"ve had season tickets for years, support UVA in everything and am a fan.... just not an alumni. Are all those 14K at MSU baseball games, alumni? I bet not.

You basically just described being a bandwagon by way of hating their rival. I'm sorry you couldn't afford UVA, but you're a ****** fan towards your own alma mater.

Why in hell would anyone in their right mind be a bandwagon MSU fan? Being an MSU fan is a curse. I love it, but it's a curse. Obviously not all 14,991 people at that Auburn game were alum. I'm sure there were prospective students, friends of students from other colleges who came for the party, and parents of players and students who never went here themselves, but 99.9% of our fan base went here. We have the most dedicated alumni base of all time and it comes from almost every student in our history having at least 1 year during their 4 where MSU was the absolute worst team, at least in one sport.****

**** Except for those bastards who went to MSU in the 90's. 17 yall.

Really, they change pitchers and everything in baseball? DUH Dude, I watched most of your series and the times I saw grills fired up and when the announcers commented on the smoke and showed it on camera you were not: a) changing pitchers, b) necessarily between innings or even c) in the 7th inning stretch. The freakin game was IN PROGRESS. Never been there and have stated I'd love to and that would be the place I'd have to visit, but I am entitled to find it funny and in my opinion out of place. I say the same about the fact that I pass some of the uber rich tailgates up next to the stadium when attending UVA football and they often don't make their way into the stadium until the second quarter, if then. They are there to party and be seen.

You can only call it out of place if you have been there. I don't know how they do things in Virginia but down here you don't have to pay all that much attention to a grill. Flip it once after 10 minutes. That's about it. You can heckle and yell while that's going on.

As far as football games, the Junction is cleared out 10 minutes before the starters are introduced on the jumbotron. Don't group our fans grilling in the outfield at the game with UVA's crappy football fans grilling in the parking lot during the game.

" Look, mister, there's... two kinds of dumb, uh... guy that gets naked and runs out in the snow and barks at the moon, and, uh, guy who does the same thing in my living room. First one don't matter, the second one you're kinda forced to deal with."
