I was thinking about it today and there are a ton of things we do at sporting events whether competing or just watching, that are really odd if done anywhere else in life... For example:
1. Peeing in sinks- You don't miss a beat if you see someone whipping it out to pee in a sink at the stadium, but if you saw that shit at work or worse, in your home. Limp-wristed fists would be flying.
2. Drinking adult beverages HEAVILY outdoors in public- Walking around the parking lot of a stadium drinking, you're fine... Walking around the parking lot of a McDonalds drinking, you're homeless.
3. Wearing another man's name on your back- For some reason this practice is acceptable for sports, but imagine wearing just some dudes name on your back... Pretty gay... not that there's anything wrong with that.
4. Grab Ass- You give a guy a slap/playfull cup of the ass during a game, no big deal. You walk around doing that shit in public (whether you know the guy or not), that shit's not going to fly.
5. Peeing in public- On the golf course, etc., having to drop trou to piss is standard. You go to drain the gecko while you're somewhere else in public, get used to seeing a big blue dot on your house when you google your address... Tier 1
6. Cursing- Calling a ref a mother fucker will get you a raised eyebrow in sports... Calling a cop a mother fucker in life will get you a baton upside the head.
7. Crying- If you just lost the big game and start crying, that dude is still generally accepted... If you just lost the big account at work and you are crying? You're done, maybe committed... Nobody is going to lunch with you every again, no playfull flirting with coworkers, you're that dude who fucking cried.
