Snowballs

Did anyone watch the Buffalo Bills-Miami Dolphins game last night?  The Buffalo fans were pelting the Dolphins with snow/ice balls and it became so bad that they halted the game and asked the fans to desist.   the thought of 300 pound, fully padded gladiators who hit each other in high speed collisions being scared of a few snowballs was hilarious.

  What’s the Audio equivalent?  Someone going ballistic when a fly lands on their $100K power amp?

So shortening your life any 20 years and having permanent brain and joint damage playing the game is perfectly normal.  But getting hit by a snowball-Dios Mio!

The refs were right to stop the game and enforce order.  Looking at some soccer highlights from Australia this weekend, it’s clear that the boundary between mischievous fan misbehavior and serious outcomes can be a thin one.  So I retract my post but won’t delete it and accept all of the criticisms.

   I just can’t rid myself of the image of an ex player, maybe sixty years old, who had a long and successful career and was famous for dealing out ferocious hits, having to explain to his grandchildren that his storied career was ended by an injury caused by a…snowball
