Streak Ending Game

Yep, I'm a Skins fan...been that way since I was three years old and they drafted Darryl Green. So as a fan I make a point to try to catch at least one home game at Fed Ex Field every season and this year has been no different. Actually that's a lie, it has been different but only because I have been doing big this year kicking out that doe to see multiple games this season.

Up until this past Sunday I had been to two games (and had to turn down one because of the cost) and every game I had been to was a win. So when the third opportunity arose I quickly took advantage of it. I should have known from the break that this time would be different because I had those nose-bleed seats in the 400 section. This was also the first division game (Philly) I had seen so that was a big difference also. The crazy part is that this game where we lost was probably the most entertainingly ignorant game I have been too. First I went with a Philly fan and he kept telling me how violent some Philly fans are...and they made sure to prove him right thru the entire game. In a section to the right of us some Eagles fans get escorted out early in the game. Just after halftime some Philly fans get escorted out from a section to the left of us. And near the end of the game when all hope was looking lost about 4 sections below me a fight breaks out only this time it's Redskin against Redskin. This big 300 lb black man tried to choke the life out of a pair of skinny white dudes sitting in front of him...Well at least one of them dudes has a pair of fingerprints across his adam's apple right now. Seeing as how the big dude had a choke hold and the lil dude only had leverage you can imagine his reaction...yep he pulled his big ass right out of his row and they began to roll down three rows toward the ledge. Yeah the stopped...in part from the other skinny white guy grabbing his friend as he commenced to throw some Shaquille Oneal Style haymakers on the back of the assailants head...

The fight at the game was almost exactly like that...Ofcourse homeboy at the game was actually landing his haymakers and it was stadium seats instead of the hardwood. Shaq really didn't want it with Brad Miller did he? LOL!!!

On top of all that entertainment I provided entertainment to everyone in my row also. Halfway thru the first quarter the seats started to fill and wouldn't it be my luck that I have to sit next to the 6'2" 350 lb dude in the Burgundy Russell Athletic sweatsuit. And when I say he sat next to me I am highly over exxagerating because the brotha definitely shared 1/4 of my seat with me. Dude was so close that when he coughed (which he did A LOT) I felt it all in my right side. I swear I could feel that brothas heart beating. My man's sweat suit smelled like Frito Lays cornchips and mothballs and he had a Jerry curl that needed to be washed BADLY...I'm talking a scent that was very familiar to hallway piss and boiled hotdogs. The odor was just light enough to only hit me when the breeze turned the right way (which is often when you are 20 flights in the air). Man that scent reminded me of my grandmothers apartment building in the summer. LOL.

Quit an eventful game and worst of all we let go of a lead in the 4th quarter yet again...man it's hard to be a Redskin fan.
