Today, I Met the World's Dumbest Steelers Fan

[Cajuncowboy]

Ummmm....

 

[PBJTime]

I'm confused. Did you or did you not touch his drain snake?

Damn it bbgun, I just spit energy drink all over my desk.

Stupid fan. funny thread. Never shake hands with a plumber.

 

[THUMPER]

This thread went from mind boggling to really funny!

Not everyone defines "fan" the same way. Maybe he just likes identifying with the team, the black and yellow, etc. but really couldn't care less about the team itself. I'm just throwing stuff out there... Truly one for the ages.

Maybe he is using too much "pipe dope".

bbgun is killing me lately.

This guy borders on being as dumb as the Commanders guy who told me the team is named after a brand of peanut, not Native Americans.

He did a plumbing job for me and came to my office to have me sign the invoice. My office is decorated with Cowboys stuff. He comments on that then tells me he is a Steelers fan.

I said, "well, as much as it pains me to say it, I think you guys are the team to beat."

He replied, "I hope not. I'd like to see some new blood in there. I'm rooting for the Cardinals against the Ravens."

I said, "you do realize this would be a sixth Super Bowl, more than anyone else?"

He replied, "yeah, that's why I want someone new to win it. We have ours."

I said, "so you're not a huge Steelers fans then."

He replied, "oh yeah. One of the biggest. I come from that part of the country from a whole family of Steelers fans."

Then he left.

I must have had a really dumbfounded look on my face. Every time I think about it, I get the same confused thoughts running through my dome. The let this guy drive and have sharp tools like drain snakes.

I can't even fathom this.

I'm surprised...most Steeler fans I've met actually know their stuff and are very passionate about their time. I was at Fed Ex when they ate up almost half our stadium...

I would have to agree. I've never met a Stealers (the proper spelling) fan like that one before. Every one I've ever met was really into the team and can't wait for another showdown with the Cowboys in the SB.

 

[Biggems]

maybe he is superstitious....and feels that being positive will jinx his team.

 

[Daudr]

His name wasn't "Joe" was it?

ROFLMAO! That was awesome.

Give me time. I'll come up with something equally pretentious.

That would be most serendipitous of you.

Winning is for LOSERS!!


It's about the rei-building baby!!!

Don't touch your faucets.

I'd be more worried about flushing the toilet.

 

[Silverback ate your QB]

I've never met a sports fan that magnanimous. I'm also going to assume that this is the first time "magnanimous" has been used on this board.

Search yielded 32 hits for it.

Yea but 30 of those times it was discussions of what motivates Jerry Jones keeping TO and PacMan on the team and once it was a guess at what they call those spinning rims on cars from the hood.

Truth is the poor plumber just didn't want to see another grown Cowboy fan have a mental breakdown...especially before he got paid!

*Shrugs* I don't know what to think either way. Either the guy just doesn't want to jinx his team, and he's one of those who believes if he talks to much it will jinx them, or he just really is satisfied with his team having 5 already and being a contender almost every season lately and would like to see someone knew get in there.

That seems overly generious, from a fans view, but I suppose he could be one of those types.

True.
But if Steelers win and Hos sees him again... what do you think he will be like?


It will be all about Steelers and he probably wont even remember or admit to wanting another team to win...

magnanimous:

pictures worth a thousand words. I think Hos is the big guy, so that would make his plumber the small child on the left.

Should this be moved to Non sports forum now?
