Yesterday my husband and I were watching the Twins versus the Marlins...
It's the bottom of the 9th, the Marlins are losing, so the cameraman pans up in the nearly empty stadium and there sits a fan with a garbage bag full of popcorn. He's sharing it with anyone around him who wants some, when seconds later Event Security comes over to him and asks him to leave.
Leave? It's the bottom of the 9th... his home team is losing and he's asked to leave because he brought popcorn... in a garbage bag? How did he get it into the stadium? Snuck it under his arm like Seaman Hornsby in "Operation: Petticoat"?
I realize the concessionaires need to make their money, but he got it through the turnstyle without someone stopping him... so why at the 11th hour, when the team is sucking the proverbial bag do they oust him?
Please... if he got it in there, sat the entire game eating/sharing it... and now suddenly they ask him to leave... what is the sense in that?
As my husband said, "Why not just charge him the admission price for the seat that his bag took up?"
