How NOT to Heckle at a Baseball Game...

Hey guys,

Today I got to go to a St. Louis Cardinals baseball game in our brand new Busch Stadium versus...our nemesis...the Chicago Cubs.

Well, to set the scene, my brother and I got to our seats excited to see our first Cards/Cubs game (we have an intense historical rivalry with the sCrUBS). Â*As we settled in, we were quickly dismayed to find that huge pockets of loud obnoxious Cub fans were deposited all throughout the section. Â*Oh god, they were so rude. Â*See, Cardinals fans are real baseball fans who come to watch the play of the game and cheer the hometeam...Cubs fans are a bunch of drunken idiots who drive hundreds of miles, come to our stadium, and jeer and yell and annoy everyone. Â*I hate Cubs fans.

So anyway, by the third or fourth inning, I was getting fed up. Â* These Cub fans were ruining the game with their loud antics. Â*Then their third baseman Aramis Ramirez comes to the plate...


"Aramis!" Â*The people behind me shout.. Â*"Aramis, Aramis"

So I turn around and shout back, "Aramis STINKS!"

I then turned back around, and settled into my seat thinking my barb had successfully deployed...

But my brother is just sitting next to me shaking his head. Â*"Yeah, good one. Â*Too bad maybe two people in the stadium GET it!"

Oh well, I still think it was a good heckle. Â*I thought YOU people would appreciate it!

Loved your story, Indy, but have to disagree with you--Aramis (the fragrance) doesn't stink.

As a World Series Champion White Sox fan who was raised by a Mom that grew up watching Cardinals games during her childhood, I thought that it was funny.

BTW, IndieGuy, I must take it that you don't like either Aramis Ramirez or the 1965 smell classic.

NOOOOOOOO!!!!!!



I had thought being a Basenoter and a Cub fan were mutually exclusive. Â*I guess this forces me to say that not all Cub fans are drunken idiots, some are actually cool, classy guys- with a SEVERE Basenotes addiction...(your Rain Man story should be put in "the files"!) Â*Anyway, the rivalry makes it so much fun. Â*I'm actually glad because of what happened today. Â*Lately it seems the Cubs have gotten rid of all the players that I can't stand. Â*Sosa, Farnsworth, Hawkins, Alou, Patterson etc.(D. Lee is the ONE Cub I can't hate) Â*There's not that many people on the current Cubs that get under my skin... But now...my burning "hatred" for the Cubbies is rekindled.

Yeah, I should clarify that I don't actually dislike "Aramis" the fragrance, but I thought it would be universally known that people in the stands would make the connection. Â*I wonder if there are any other names in MLB that are also fragrance name. Â*Anyone know?

And as for you, EnvYuS...I wish I could be watching the hockey playoffs, but this is the first time in 25 years that the Blues have missed the playoffs. Â*It sucks.

Ted don't you badmouth my Cubbies!!!!!! (sarcasm be noted) I will have to say though that the Aramis fragrance will have considerably less errors know that Ramirez' wacky arm will be in full effect with Lee being out for 3 months with a broken wrist. I'm actually close to feeling sorry for them (note I said close).
