Man one row behind man with the glove, encouraged by the 'Ooohs' and nonchalant attitude of the man with glove, playfully engages with the heckle of, "Hey, Elijah Woods called... YOU SUCK!"
Puzzled, the man with the glove turns around to face the man one row behind and replies, "Sorry?"
Hesitant, but still with the confidence of a bubble bee in spring, the man one row behind snorts, "Heh, you suck. Ya know, cuz ya, uh, dropped the ball dere."
"Oh yea, I can comprehend the part that I suck," the man with the glove shot back. "But Elijah Wood called?..."
"Yeah, he, uh sucks."
"Oh, well most people don't think he sucks, so I was pretty confused..."
"Yeah, yeah you suck like Elijah Woods sucks at being in movies."
"Elijah WOOD."
"Yeah."
The man with the glove flushed on an angry shade of red. "You've been calling him Elijah WOODS, his name is Elijah WOOD."
"Whoa, sorry. I didn't know I'd be messing with his fan club here. Haha. C'mon you're alright, huh?"
"I'm not that big of an Elijah Wood fan, sir! What I am a fan of is Reason and Logic. Judging from the pronunciation from his name I bet you only know him from the Lord of The Rings?"
"Yeah... and that movie sucked."
Man with glove shrugs his shoulders so stiffly, the resulting crack made the leftfielder misread a ball.
"I am not here to debate any opinions of any movies or actors sir. But based on your insult and the fact that you refered to the Lord of the Rings as a singular movie, I feel I will outweigh in a battle of intellect, so I am going to turn around and appreciate baseball on my level of understanding, and you continue to enjoy it in yours." The man with his gloves starts to glomb back in his chair.
"Well, I bet you can't name any other Elijah Woods movies neither..." the man one row behind picked and flinged out of his teeth."
It is important to note that this is a Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim home baseball, who the man with the glove is an avid fan of. He is so much of a fan that in addition to bringing a Nolan Ryan glove he had since he was 11, he also has the official licensed replica Angels baseball cap. That cap, colored red, coupled with how red the man with the glove's face got, made for the reddest head any casual baseball fan has ever seen.
The man with the glove uncorked his mouth and out spewed: "1) The Good Son. North. He was in Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. Ang Lee's The Ice Storm.... more recently Sin City. 2) The core of your argument is based on not enjoying a critical, financial, and global success of a movie that everyone loves; a movie that, despite its successes, you think isn't good, and therefore learned a close semblance of one of the actor's name to use as a derogatory comment at a public venue? 3) Quote: "You suck like he sucks at being in movies". You, a grown man who has mature and financial capability of treating himself to a baseball game, could not think of the word for acting. Sidenote to 3) You said being in movies, yet stated you only saw him in one movie. You sir don't have your facts straight. And finally 4) That despite my previous telling it to you a minute ago, you still pronounced his name incorrectly. IT'S WOOD. NO 'S'!"
You could hear Torii Hunter's deep breath as he commited to a double.
The crowd cheers but with a line from the man one row behind inside it saying, "Alright. You made your point, let's watch the ball game."
The man with the glove, weighed down by his smile, leans deep in his chair completely ignorant of the fact that he missed catching foul ball.
