Why I Stopped Going to Football Games
Every time I went,
they asked me for money.
The people sitting next to me didn't seem
very friendly.
The seats were too hard.
The coach never came to
call on me.
The referee made a decision I disagreed with.
I was
sitting with hypocrites - they came only to see what others were
wearing.
Some of the games went into overtime and I was late getting
home.
The band played songs I didn't like.
The games were
scheduled when I wanted to do other things.
My parents took me to too
many games when I was growing up.
Since I read a book about football,
I know more than the coaches do, anyhow.
I don't want to take my
children, because I want them to choose for themselves what sport they like
best.
