April 1, 201412 yr You want to see a slow swing, Tyler Flowers, he was god awful. Dunn did not get the ball out of the infield. Security was tight at the park as there was a rumor floating in the Chicago Police Department that Obama may be attending the game.

I was in 125 and a guy 2 rows in front of me doesn't let Adam Dunn have one swing and a miss without letting him have it. It really was annoying.

And his 4-man security team.

There are very few people who want Dunn on the White Sox, but given the extenuating circumstances, keeping him on the roster makes sense. I mean, it's opening day for crying out loud, be happy and cheer the guys.

A few years ago when I was sitting near 3rd base there was a guy who was doing something similar when Scott Linebrink was pitching. He was just ripping him even if it was a strike.

He apparently has no plans to change his swing either, as each of his swings in both strikeouts looked identical. No adjustments, just hoping to run into one. Dude is awful.

April 1, 201412 yr There was some jackass right behind us, in a group of four very drunk idiots... when they started the tribute video to those who had died in the past year (they do this every year), the whole stadium is silent... except this guy, who proceeds to ask who the &*^&* these people were, then shouts at the top of his lungs "AMERICA!!!!!!". I turned around and just stared at him, his friends noticed and reined him in. Not surprisingly, those weren't even their seats, and they eventually had to move away and left the area. It's a ballgame, I accept there will be lots of screaming idiots, but this guy was just too much.
