A Seahawks Game

I got to go to my first Seattle Seahawks game tonight courtesy of our database vendor, Oracle. We had awesome seats (4th row on the 40), perfect weather (low fog and rain), but the guy next to me was the most obnoxious asshole I've ever met. He was a drunk, substantially overweight 30 something that screamed on the cell phone with his wife and daughter the entire game. Not only did he scream at the players while on the phone but he was arguing so much with his wife that the players kept looking back at my row laughing at him. I almost dreaded a score or great play by the 'Hawks because we would just go nuts and try to high five me. I felt so bad for his wife and daughter on the other line. The poor bastard paid $185 for his seat from a scalper. And from what I could clean from his conversation, he didn't have that $185.

Other than him, the game was great ('Hawks beat the St. Louis Rams 31-16) and it was actually fun to be in the cold rain. It's hard to believe that was my first Seahawks game since moving to Seattle and unfortunately, I forgot (gasp!) my digital camera :(
