MINDLESS LIVING:
Who Are You Rooting For?
When you’re at a sports game, go root for your team! Show your team spirit! But, when you go to a baseball or sporting event and someone starts calling horrible, curse words at people from the other team sitting around you… that’s just embarrassing, dangerous, and mindless.
Yelling, cursing, fights and skirmishes are increasingly common at all levels of competition, from playgrounds to professional leagues. Most people who have attended a sporting event have witnessed at least one example of an out-of-control fan.
Research shows several reasons for this emerging aggression with sports fans. If you can’t manage your emotions and behavior at sporting events please get some help. You may endanger yourself and others.
Please be mindful and remember, it’s just a game!
