Has The World Gone Mad?

while channel surfing i happened upon a station that had a guy 100+ lbs overweight running into a stadium full of the most boisterous crowd you could ever see. i thought for sure it was a pep rally for a politician but soon dismissed the notion when i realized that politicians don't tend to look like sumo wrestlers. it had to be some form of preacher i then figured...some pep rally, evangelical thing combined with some variation of a tony robbins fire walk toaster oven sale on amway daytime zombi game show type thing....wrong again..the guy had too many sponsors on his outfit...

wtf......everyones drinking...drinking heavily...table after table after table full to the tilt with pitchers of ale...it's an arena full of beer guzzling supporters of something......they're all singing some kind of beer song...everyone knows every word and the entire arena is like a soccer stadium full of crazed hero worshippers I want to sing too but i dont know the words.....i dont get it...whats going on...who tf is this guy and wtf is he so famous for? i haven't seen this much revelling since the israelites went nuts over the golden calf during the ten commandments. Maybe this guy is moses reincarnated....as a caucasian sumo wrestler pitching his wares on a shopping channel that allows drinking....

then i realized it was darts so i turned off the tv and threw up..

Yeah I have seen a dart game in T.V. and the fans are as crazy as football fans... I think almost all of the sports nowadays have fans as crazy as them, but well you know how english could be so die hard fanatics. oy... they love sports I guess.

Hmm.. its more of media going mad with stifling amounts of it . So to gain attention weirder and weirder stuff happen . And people themselves are doing stupider stuff to attract attention to themselves

I don't really think that a game of darts is stupid, enjoying a game like that is fun, and what can we do, that game is best watched with a few kegs so guess that explains a little bit of the excitement.
