Sports Manners: Bag Over Head

Sign in to disble this ad
What is the proper way to go about wearing a bag over ones head when attenting a sporting event?

Our local ECHL team is just horrible. Not only do they manage to give up 4 goal leads, they manage to do it without seeming to care.

I've decided to attend tommorows festivities with a nice brown paper bag over my head. Maybe shame them into caring.

Do I wait for them to start sucking before I dawn the bag, or do I place the garment on my head promptly upon reaching my seat?

This is a Fassa thread in which you are bragging about attending a sporting event with a bag over your head and making an pretend issue about when to put the bag over your head.

Eh, not sure about the bragging. It's a minor league hockey game. I figure maybe 20 people in all of TBOT even know what ECHL stands for in this context.

As for the subject at hand. If it were me, I would put on the bag when the game started. But I wouldn't do such a thing no matter how poorly my team was playing.

Some people might get the wrong impression and just think you're ugly. But if you are, then it all kind of works out no matter what.

Nah, that post isnt nearly as grandiose or show-offy enough to be a Fassa thread.

Its not like he said he plays hockey... while speaking serbian.

Start with paper.

If they REALLY start to sucking, switch to plastic.
