I bought my Tampa Bay tickets so long ago. 

I promised a great time. One who had never been to a game, the other a life long tampa bay fan (respect).

 

It started off as a great day. My friends and I met up to ride down to Charlotte, after having had a Hardees breakfast.

 

We reach Uptown Cabernet on Morehead, and pay 20 bucks to park.

"My friends, we are in for a great time."

 

Time comes. We move towards the stadium.

 

The congregation of Carolina fans, underneath a bridge, singing, Gregorian chant-like, of our victory.

 

I had forgotten, at the entrance, that I had a pocket knife in my coat pocket given to me by my father. I threw it away.

 

 

We go in. Fun is had. 

 

For my friend, he enjoyed the 6 points that Tampa had gotten. For me, it was watching, live, Cam Newton, run for 57 yards.

 

Half Time happens.

 

My friends and I move towards the innards of the stadium.

 

I had promised my Tampa friend a beer earlier, and had intent on full fulling it.

I go through a line that I had learned was cash only. No big deal.

 

I need a smoke. I ask the kind lady behind the concession stand, where the designated smoking area was ( Yeah I didn't read the ticket.)

 

I light up a half-time-didn't-smoke-since-downing-shitty-beer smoke.

After a few seconds of lighting my fateful smoke, I was asked by the concession stand "security" guy to put out my smoke, as the whole of BOA is non-smoking. My fault, I oblige. 

 

While putting out my smoke, I reflexively hit it one more time, which was enough for this security guy to say that I was not complying.

 

I was then, beyond my pleading of how insane this was, escorted out of the stadium, left to my own frustrated tears, and embarrassment. 

 

Huddlers, did I do something more wrong than unknowingly smoke in a smoke free facility, and did it facilitate me being escorted out

 

 

I had to let this out, It was an absolute frustration all day.

Have you been living under a rock the past 10 years? Its basically illegal to smoke anywhere, other than inside of your house, and for good reason. I actually don't even feel sorry for you.

 

 

That is fine. I do not agree with indoor smoking.

But I had not been to a game since I was 15, I did not know the rules.(which I understand to not be an excuse)

When I was told to put out the cigarette, I did it with no question.

 

I dont need you to be sorry for me, I truly don't care.

My annoyance is seeing someone else being kicked out for something as stupid as what i did.

did the concession lady tell you it was a non smoking facility? 

 

No, Infact, she told me to smoke where I did.

 

But still, i understand my not knowing is not an excuse. I just dont see how the unbelievable asshole personality that this guy sustained was equatable.

yeah, that sucks. It's always that last jab that gets you in trouble though. In this case, I think you could have done with out your last puff.

pretty much this. the last puff was your downfall. could easily had been taken as a "f*ck you" by the security guy.

No doubt, if I knew my last reflexive puff on a smoke would have caused this, then i would ofcourse not do so. 

I am just in a sour mood, I want to buy tickets to the jets game, but seriously, after what i went through with this asshole, I truley do not know if i want to go back.

      Our Buddy Chase Blackburn Fired

      By kungfoodude · Posted

      https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/47371200/sources-rams-fire-special-teams-coordinator-chase-blackburn LOS ANGELES -- The Los Angeles Rams have fired special teams coordinator Chase Blackburn, sources told ESPN's Adam Schefter. The move marks the first in-season coaching change that Rams head coach Sean McVay has made in his nine seasons in Los Angeles. Rams assistant special teams coach Ben Kotwica will take over and become the lead special teams coach, a source told Schefter. The Rams, 11-4 and second place in the NFC West, lost to the Seahawks on Thursday night in a game that included a Seattle punt return for a touchdown and a missed 48-yard field goal by Los Angeles kicker Harrison Mevis. The Seahawks (12-3) overtook the Rams for first place in the division and the top overall record in the NFC thanks to the 38-37 overtime victory. Though the Rams have lost only four games this season, three have involved special teams miscues. In the Rams' first loss of the season, 33-26 to the Eagles, Los Angeles had its final two offensive possessions end with blocked kicks. In the Rams' Week 10 victory over the Saints, kicker Joshua Karty missed an extra point and a 39-yard field goal attempt. After the game, McVay said the Rams' special teams issues "can't continue like this." Los Angeles replaced long-snapper Alex Ward with Jake McQuaide and Karty with Mevis, who had not missed a kick until Thursday night in Seattle. Blackburn, 42, was in his third season as the Rams' special teams coordinator. A former linebacker for the Giants and Panthers, he also has worked as an assistant with Carolina and Tennessee.

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      By ForJimmy · Posted

      It was a bad play from Icky but the OL didn't give up a sack until late in the 4th quarter and Bryce just stood there like he was canatonic. If our 3rd year number one overall pick can't overcome one single sack against a rebuilding Saints team that should only have 2 wins this season then it isn't ever going to happen   This is your quote. I mean I’ve quoted it twice. It was followed by calling people that defended him fugers and several other meltdowns I can also quote.    Shame you for working for a living??? Wow this is a whole new level to your victim mentality thing you like to do. You don’t have to watch games live. Or don’t spend an entire thread arguing about something you didn’t get the full picture of. I miss parts of games all the time. That’s just life. Not even going into the whole losing all respect thing.

      TNF: Rams/Seahawks

      By frankw · Posted

      Rams ended up firing ST coach and former Panthers coach Chase Blackburn after the loss. Sounds all too familiar.
