ND Road Trip Horror Story

So, what the hell are you bitching about then? You ****ed up. Sat in the wrong seats. Got busted for smuggling al-kee-hall. Attempted to return when told not to. Got ripped off by scalpers. And still choose to blame someone else.

You're the asshole. Not them. If that's what highest honors is producing, we need to re-evaluate.
 
ArchiTECH, too, visited Notre Dame and was treated like royality. Many, many Notre Dame fans were nice to ArchiTECH (although no one really seemed to want to venture too close).

Their campus is beautiful and the pre-game "Irish Walk" or whatever they call it was impressive. After the game, no less than a dozen ND fans said "congrats, glad you visited, have a safe trip" and ArchiTECH got the impression they actually meant it. If there were drunk Irish fans (and there probably were) they sure were well-behaved drunks - those are my favorite kinds (of drunks) and ArchiTECH has emulated their behavior much of his / her life.

ArchiTECH went to this Wes Durham thing earlier in the summer and the portly Mr. Durham (has he got a huge ass or what!) said, "make the Notre Dame trip, no matter what it costs." Well, ArchiTECH is independently weathy, but I took Mr. Durham's advice anyway and spent as much money as possible staying in Chicago in very close proximity to Oprah Winfrey and her neighbor Jerry Springer - but I digress...

Anywho, the Notre Dame fans were great (my perspective), the campus and weather were beautiful and ArchiTECH and his traveling companion waved their pom poms well into the night (we had some of shaky yellow things, too).

love,
ArchiTECH
 
To clarify....I was in my correct seat, the usher directed people into ours incorrectly. I never disobeyed any verbal order, the guy just chose to kick me out the second time and reverse his previous words.

Just relating a story, not asking for empathy so I'd appreciate it if you'd relax. AS for being 48 and insulting my degree I'd like to think by that age a Tech grad or anyone would have a bit more maturity.
 
Okay okay, I'm usually not a huge clapper fan, but this made me laugh:

And what is this 'I'm going to piss, you sort it out' bull****?

Were you smart enough to graduate, let alone pretend to pursue a law degree?

Its true you can't bring alcohol in but realistically was it necessary to kick me out for merely possessing it, especially being a grown adult?

One of the guys in my group got thrown out of the 05 GT-UGA game in less than 10 seconds after taking his seat. He pulled a can of beer out of his pocket in the upper west stands as soon as he sat down, an usher immediately grabbed him and physically pulled him away before we even realized what was happening.

At least he didn't have to see the game. That was one of the worst feelings I've ever had leaving the stadium.

And you're getting no empathy here. I'm also quite relaxed, thank you very much. It doesn't show a lack of maturity to question your extremely questionable actions. I wasn't insulting the degree. I was insulting the person. And you're questioning the wrong person's maturity IMO.

Two places on the on the back of the ticket it states that alcohol is prohibited and the ban will be strictly enforced...but you don't have yours anymore, so I don't expect you to know that, since you didn't bother to read it when you had it in your possession. (Or more specifically, chose to ignore it.)

It also says IN BOLD LETTERS that violators may have future ticket privileges revoked. Yet, you went out, bought another ticket, and returned. They were within their rights to toss your ass the second time too. Also, on that ticket it says that resales are prohibited on campus. I don't suppose you left campus either time?

And to top it off, when you go to their website, there's an entire page dedicated to warning patrons that fraudulent tickets are being sold outside the stadium.

That means that the smart guy pursuing the legal degree broke the rule regarding alcohol, then the one about buying a ticket on campus, got that ticket revoked by rule, broke the one about buying a ticket on campus (again), and re-entered (again), this time with a fraudulent ticket.

Try a little harder not to embarrass your school next time.

Mr. Kyle,
ArchiTECH is again bewitched by your rigorous scrutiny of my post. ("my" here is a possessive pronoun referencing not the complement noun "scrutiny," but the the complement "post." To avoid the ambiguity of pronouns altogether, ArchiTECH should have referred to ArchiTECH's self as ArchiTECH).

Keep up the good work.

love,
ArchiTECH

Mr. TECH,

To keep your post in consistent 3rd person you must subsitute "my" with "ArchiTECH's."

For future reference, since you like to correct everyone's grammar for some reason, you might want to try not using an apostrophe to indicate plurality. Also, try to be consistent with your plurality..."my" is a singular word, where as "ArchiTECH's"[sic] is plural.

While we're picking nits, you're wrong gth. My is singular possessive, and so is "ArchiTECH's". I wouldn't normally call you out, but you called Kyle out, and you were wrong. ;)

Ah, but he meant "ArchitTECH's" as a plural, which is why I used [sic] after it, and he was using the word "my" in reference to the actual word, so it was a noun in that case. Just to pick nits :).

No, I wasn't referring to ArchiTECH in the plural sense. You're just wrong.
