Drink, Cheer and Jeer but Don't Ruin it for the Rest of Us

I'm a big sports fan and there aren't many other things in this world that I enjoy more than going to a live sports event.  The atmosphere can be electric and you get to be apart of something the the television audience misses out on at home.  Unfortunately with the good there can sometimes be bad.  Loud mouthed, hot air blowing idiots who carry on the entire game with comments distracting those around them from the in game action.
   I was at a hockey game last evening where the home team won 3 - 1.  I along with my friend we in the upper bowl of the arena with what some would say are "real fans".  In our section alone I counted at least 25-30 younger children, ranging in age from maybe as young as 8 to as old as 13 or 14.  In the first period there was this large gentleman sitting almost directly behind me who seemed to have a comment for everything.  One player would touch the puck he'd have a comment, the referee would blow the whistle, he'd have a comment.  At one point he dropped a number of rather crass words, too harsh for publication on this blog...fuck is mild compared to some of the words this ass was using.  Immediately to my friends right was a young boy, no more than 7 or 8 years old and this neanderthal is just spewing garbage out of his mouth in front of this child.  My friend just leaned over to the young fan and said, "Don't listen to him.".  In the second period he had moved a little further down the aisle, but was no less aggressive with his words.  Finally in the third period another fan had heard enough from this over sized whoopee cushion and they exchanged some words, which again distracts the rest of those in the area away from the one ice action.
    I'm all for going to a live sports event, enjoying a beverage or two and cheering your home team, or jeering the opposing team.  Sometimes though, there are people who just seem to think they are the only one in the entire venue and that everything coming out of their mouth is as funny as they think it is.  This social reject seemed like he was only there to get drunk, it was apparent he was not a fan of the home team, nor was he a fan of the visiting team, he was just there to drink and annoy those around him.  If you want my opinion, that's an expensive night if you are simply going to listen to your own verbal diarrhea, you could have easily stayed at home, grabbed a two-four and screamed your obscene vocabulary at your what I assume would be an over sized tv, to make you feel better about your obesity issue and small penis!

   Dear Annoying Ass Face,

      Your Zellers sweater and Giant Tiger dress shirt didn't hide, but exemplified that you are a complete douche!  Perhaps you could afford better quality clothing if you didn't spend all your money on expensive sports tickets and booze just so you can put on your idea of a comedy show.  You annoyed not only me, but on several occasions distracted a very young fan from the game with your profane language.
    Go crawl in a hole, take a shit, eat it, then maybe your mouth would be cleaner for it!  Next time you're at a game, look around you, take note of any young children and then maybe use your judgment and just leave before you ruin someone else night PRICK!!!!
