Living Behind the Blue Curtain
Every wonder what it is like to be a fan of another team in a different
city? Well here is one man's experiences of being a Giants fan behind
the Blue Curtain otherwise known as LA.
Everywhere I go and every place I see all this Dodger blue garbage.
Even though I live only 30 minutes from Anaheim Stadium eveybody seems
to be Dodger fans. You know them. Bitter, angry, jealous, frontrunning
people who are die hard Dodger fans as long as the Dodgers are winning
which they haven't been doing for a while. Once they struggle or just
plain SUCK (as they do now) they are nowhere to be found. They always
seem to be more upset when I wear my Giants cap and I remind them that
WE ARE THE DEFENDING NL WEST CHAMPS!!!!
Going to Dodger Stadium can be an experience. All the so called fans
show up in the 3rd inning and leave in the 7th even though it maybe a
one run game and the Dodgers are winning(which it's often). I guess
they have to make an entrance like the movie stars who go to Dodger
games.
Being a Giants fan at a Dodger game is great. All the dodger fans can't
stand what I am screaming at their loser players. Things like "Pert Boy
if you swing like a girl go to the Silver Bullets." Or "Karros what's
the matter. Are you too STUPID to go to STANFORD? You ucla SCUM!!!!!!
"Nomo NO GOOD" "Zeile your wife is a better athlete than you" But
Dodger fans are not known for their intelligence so they just sit there
all quiet and with their hands on those TERRIBLE Dodger dogs not knowing
what to say.
I love it when the Giants are winning and most of the Dodgers fans have
left and the stadium is quiet and the only thing people can hear is
"PERT BOY" or "ucla SCUM" or BUMS SUCK" coming from this Giant fan
living behind the blue curtain.
It's great in a sports bar. I remember when BJ hit hat HR to beat the
Bums. A friend and I were watching the game at a sports bar. Now
remember I'm a Stanford fan too and BJ was QB for the Cardinal. My
friend is a dodger and ucla fan (Two time LOSER) and when BJ hit that
HR I yelled at the top of my lungs YES!!!!! F**k the Dodgers!!!!!! I
was so happy. You should have seen some of the looks I got from people
in the bar. It's go great to see the dodgers LOSE.
Hearing all the dodger this and dodger that can make me sick and it
does. But it is GREAT that I can rub it into dodger blue faces that the
SAN FRANSICO GIANTS ARE THE DEFENDING NATIONAL LEAGUE CHAMPIONS and
will be the 1998 WORLD SERIES CHAMPIONS!!!!!!
See you July 4th weekend
