Opening kickoff: "Praise God! Hallelujah!" After Yazdani's first FG: "God bless you sweetheart! Hooray! Hallelujah!" The several times a BG player was injured: "Lord, please comfort him. Let him heal..." Not passing judgment on the woman, but thought this was worth sharing. She definitely turned heads (including the softball team, which was in our section) EDIT: I should clarify, she also referred to Daz and Sprague as "sweetheart" too. Also heard someone else mention "C.J."

When you start thanking God for the kick off...that gets near fringe territory but I wouldn't say she's uniquely strange. Think about the other 25,000 people at the game. Full-grown adults getting all riled up, yelling at kids from the stands. In general it's hard to say that activity is super rational or down-to-earth.

Just saying we as sports fans have a bit of a glass house around us to be throwing stones about anyone getting riled up and yelling odd things.

Funny what some people call fringe these days. Refreshingly, our kicker feels no need to hide that he comes from a Christian family. I would have preferred listening to his mother thanking God for hers sons opportunity than to listen to the rude and drunk "adults" sitting right of my son and I.

If that's her kid kicking the ball off, I take back the fringe part. It's outspoken but not really fringe. Regardless I'd be happy to sit next to this woman at a game. I didn't mean any offense.

We're not supposed to be rational (super or otherwise) or down-to-earth. Why not? Because the outcome of the game doesn't hinge on our actions. We're not paid, in money or otherwise, to keep our cool and execute a game plan. We can be "rabid fans"; never heard of "rabid" players or coaches. We will get by. We will get by. We will get by. We will survive.
