Wow. What a bunch of genius's! People are bigger now than when they built lots of football and basketball venues years ago? Really? You guys just figure this one out, huh? Yeah, some of the difference is the large number of overweight people (like me, probably), but a lot of it is simply that people are bigger. Personally, I would rather be crowded in next to an overweight person rather than sitting next to the following... ...some idiot who spends the whole game on a cell phone...some smelly, drunk, obnoxious gen.x'er...some football genius who narrates the entire game for me...somebody who can't stay in his/her seat for a whole quarter at a time...somebody who absolutely reeks of tobacco smoke...somebody who makes rude comments about players/coaches non-stop...somebody who continues to drink throughout the game and ends up wanting to fight anyone around him for unknown reasons...somebody whose language is so vulgar, rude, obnoxious that people around him/her are really turned off, and for good reason ...and finally, somebody who ******* about being uncomfortable at a football game. Yup, we have a lot of overweight people; but, they don't even compare in creating discomfort for me with those I describe above, most of whom are members of the "new" generation of Iowa fans. Yeah, (and angry Lewis Black is my favorite comedian of the day.
