I recently sat there and felt similarly. Thankfully no George Costanza moments (that I’m aware of). Having a camera right in your face just feels inherently awkward.

Although I did have a strong desire to not clap or cheer after a goal and just stare directly at the lens serial killer style after a goal. Sadly I didn’t follow thru. Could’ve been a CP meme!

Never been in that position, but one of those three is likely my response.

Flipping the bird on tv or even Jumbotron gets you kicked out of the game.

The other suggestions are fine.

Not only is that article incredibly stupid and degrading to her, the website is pure trash. Rows of links, advertisements, videos and imbedded bull#### everywhere. Can't believe someone wasted their day writing that.

while she did not look happy, i hope that buddy never sees this article. As that would be hard to read for him.

I had no idea Deadspin was still operational, but I see they havent changed.

I thought this would be about the couple behind the bench for every game...any details on them? just out of curiosity.

Vichy Deadspin is no Defector.

If I was the guy in the article, I'd laugh at the article author for being a jealous incel. What a trash piece.

[icarus]

Man, the author of the article really sounds like some lonely, depressed human-shaped husk.

[GullFoss]

The article is just cringe and super disrespectful to both the guy and the girl in that section. The author must be a real db.

Just as plausible is that the woman is just uncomfortable with the camera being right in front of her

Unless they speak to her or have more context to add, this is just dumb.

I don’t think I’ve ever heard sureloss swear before

This thread is super creepy.

We shouldn't be discussing random girls in the crowd.

I don't think we are. It's a discussion about how big of a dumbass the author of the article is.


Someone who thinks he's edgy, but he's actually an incel.

Yeah, this lumbering husk of what was deadspin is pretty sad to see. Not sure what the complaints here about the old deadspin are all about - did they trash the Flames at some point? Defector has pretty smart writing.

I thought so. I dont think it was serious at all.

He’s written other such classics as: if a leaf falls in the forest, does it compost?

[bdubbs]

I didn't even give the article a free click and I know it's stupid already. People need to do better.

Bev and Sleepy-looking guy? That would be an interesting juxtaposition. Bev looks totally into the game, while her companion looks like he just wants to take a nap.

It's interesting seeing the difference in places like Dallas, where there are people that come to the game and sit behind the benches trying to parlay the experience into future tiktok fame.
