Hi All,
I have another Rant about our Society. I took my dad to a ballgame last night in St. Louis. We arrived early and sat outside the stadium for about an hour. We saw the normal ticket scalpers and obnoxious people. However we saw these large bus-like vehicles rounding Busch Stadium that represented local strip clubs. These buses had girls on them and you can guess how they looked. There were pictures on the van of some fairly immoral behavoir to entice men to come there after the game. We saw several smaller buses and limos arrive with people toting drinks and several were already feeling no pain. When inside we saw a great game the Cards scored early and often but this IMO lead to many people starting to drink a lot. We saw two men thrown out for shoutng obscenities. The crowd immediatley around us had the most vile language and they wanted everyone to hear every detail of their conversation. No one cared that kids were around and could hear every word of their sexual exploits and drug usage.
I haven't been to a game in several years, but is this how we are now in public? I was embarassed for my 92 year old Father to have to hear and see it all. Does this bother anyone else or should I just stay home form now on and not worry about it?
