    Yeah I know just giving Niners fans a hard time since we had 2 pages of commentary a couple days ago. I hate seeing that kind of stuff at games.

    Is it me or does it seem like NFL games draw more shitty people than any other sport? Could just be higher numbers from popularity alone, but NFL followers always seem to be the most rabid when it comes to "team pride."

    I don't follow the NFL really at all, so correct me if I'm wrong.. just seems like that sport attracts more than it's fair share of fans who act like idiots.

    i think the tailgating and massive amounts of alcohol sold go hand in hand here. Only sport that really emphasizes on the tailgating.

    That's true, forgot about the tailgating. :anonymous:

    I really only go to baseball games at ATT Park and used to go to watch the Warrior's when I was younger, never been to a football game. Only had one bad experience at ATT Park and it was one Giants fan getting pissy with my buddy who was a Dodger's fan (Giants vs Dodgers, Dodgers won - took him and our women for a birthday gift) and the guy settled down after we exchanged looks.

    Obviously baseball has had it's share of tragedies, which is also a fucking shame.

    i have season tickets to the Giants, so i got about 15-20 times a year. Ive only seen one incident and it happened to be a LA/SF game where LA romped us. It happens and alcohol is mainly the reason. Ive never felt unsafe at AT&T. I think no alcohol sales after the 7th is why its a little safer.

    Ive been to one football game and it was stupid. Horrible views and was terrible to leave.

    I don't feel unsafe there either, I'm looking forward to taking our daughter to a game when she's old enough. Worst thing I ever expect when I go there is a buzzed guy swearing at the umps or heckling the other team - NBD, that's baseball.

    My first job out of high school I worked at a toxicology lab, and they ended up busing us out to an A's game and had a catered lunch in the park and whatnot.. I don't remember who they played, but it felt sketch to be there. The fans were different than I was used to, tons of security and they all seemed visibly stressed.. it was weird.

    Anyway.. sorry with the sports drivel. ;)

    I'd never include soccer.. they're a different breed, but domestic fans seem pretty tame.

    Nothing says family values like a face full of spent nitromethane! I can still feel my eyes burning.

    I've wanted to go out to Sonoma and watch some drags for years and never have made it.
    Heard tickets are pretty steep.. $150 or so?

    No... Like $50 a person depending on where you sit... This is the first year I haven't gone in about 10 years... It's usually a 250-300 dollar day including gas... Remember I am driving from Sacramento... And also depending on how much food and beer you get... And kids under 5 I think are free if you sit in the "family section"

    That is only if you walk around the pits and watch them warm up...

    You can't go to a race without pit passes!
