Absolutely disgusted.

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.

      Why? AI already taking jobs, running up power bills, drinking all the water and just bad for the environment but hey lest try to shoehorn another useless way to use it.

      2026 Mock Drafts

      By Soul Rebel · Posted

      I'm going rogue in R1 but there's so much confusion around us. Last year, we were going Walker or Williams and caught folks off guard with TMac. The previous year we LOVED Legette and it was no surprise when his name was called. This year, I think we nail three areas that weren't totally addressed in FA.  R1 - Kayden McDonald Full disclosure, I want Thienemann here, but think he goes before 19. Some might see an "overdraft" but McDonald unlocks so many people on our D. Having a DT the caliber of McDonald let's Lloyd, Wallace and the newly drafted Hill flood the offensive backfield. Also opens up Moehrig and our EDGES to eat. Lastly, it also removes all the pressure on DB to be the primary facilitator in the trenches and A'Shawn will be missed. I don't care about Turk. McDonald is the only true DT worth of a R1 grade and Morgan seals up our trenches here w/ a kid from a blue blood school. R2 - Anthony Hill Jr *trade up*  I love JRod, but think a smart team takes him at the end of R1 (Seattle, NE w/ two d-minded coaches). Hill, Jr is a beast and lost in the shuffle with all the Styles/Allen/Rodriguez hype. He and Lloyd with DB and McDonald up front and flanked by Scourton/Phillips is nasty.  R3 - Hecht/Lew/Center du jour Let's stop the madness with ignoring this position in the draft. We need one and should start normalizing the capital invested in our OL with someone on a draft contract. He won't need to start day 1, but I think the right selection will push for starter reps. R4 - Bud Clark Not sure if he's here in R4 where we pick, but would fit the "type" of FS/roamer that we need opposite Moehrig and Ransom. Allows us to run 3-safety looks and really keep teams guessing with personnel packages. R5 - Kendrick Law The kind of WR we need. IDK if he's any different than Horn, Jr or Metchie but Law could be a dart throw that brings a deep threat to our WR corps I'm guessing one of the R5 picks is used to move up in R2 along with a '27 day 3 pick.   Post-draft, I sign Njoku to bring in a vet at TE. I'm also keeping my eyes open for pre-week 1 team cuts for a young CB that we could bring in to maybe plan for Mike Jack's departure next year. Flame away.... I know the McDonald pick will not make people happy.
