Bunch Of Vulgar Morons Spoils WSU Football Game Letter Of The Week: From Sept. 25

After attending the Washington State vs. Montana game on Sept. 9, the only word I can find to describe my experience is repulsive. I’m not referring to the way the football team played, though I could be. I attended the game with my wife and four of our friends, most of whom hadn’t been to a WSU football game before. We’ll never go back.

After taking our seats, we began to notice the things many students around us had written on their bare chests, arms or old T-shirts. Some of the things we saw were “Stupid Drunk,” of which many of them were, “I love beer,” “Bitches dig me,” and others dealing with sexual positions, arrows pointing towards sexual anatomy, and vulgar descriptions of sex.

We were all stunned for a moment and then began to realize how despicable it was. Little kids were walking by reading the curse words and sick things, I’m sure. All I could think of was how I paid $30 for this wonderful “family” event. (At least that’s how it’s advertised, right?)

Before any of you start thinking I’m a naive, old man who hasn’t been in the “real world,” I’m 21 and I’ve been to many big university games, including those at the big university I attended. I’ve never in my life seen such a bunch of complete morons trying to act like cool college students.

If I ever hear of someone wanting to attend WSU who has any kind of concern for morality in our society, I won’t send them there. Seth James Spokane
