Hi, this is Abdul at Ticketmaster….I see you’re calling from Cleveland?
 
Ya, hi.  I have company coming this weekend.  What events are running on Sunday?  I’d like a live performance. 
 
I show one event like that Ma’am.  How many tickets would you like?  All we have left are the least expensive seats.
 
Ya?  So, how much are the tickets? I need 6, okay?
 
They’re $200, Ma’am.
 
For all 6?
 
No, Ma’am. Each one is $200.
 
<Gasping sound.>  So it's a concert?  Who's playing?
 
No, it’s a football game, Ma’am.  Browns vs. Patriots.
 
Hummm…I dunno.  How long is it?
 
There’s no set time Ma’am.
 
Huh?
 
The game lasts until it’s over, Ma’am.
 
Well, what time does it start?
 
8 pm, Ma’am.
 
Okay.  Well, maybe.  Is there a coat check?
 
No, Ma’am, the game is in a stadium.
 
What’s a stadium like?
 
Its outside and holds 250,000 people in miniature seats.
 
Outside?  But <crackle> I heard on the news it’ll be going down to below zero and a blizzard is expected.
 
Yes, Ma’am. But we haven’t added the blizzard surcharge yet, so you’re in luck.
 
<Inaudible mumbling.>
 
<Deep sigh.>  Well, what’s the proper attire?
 
That depends, Ma’am.  Will you and your guests be attending any of the riots?
 
Riots?  <Inaudible mumbling.>
 
Yes, Ma’am. Most customers like to arrive several hours before kick off and get very, vey drunk in the parking lot, and then of course, if the Browns lose, there’ll be the after-riot in the stadium since it’s a home game.  Sometimes there's riot in the streets around the stadium too, but I can't promise that.
 
I thnk we'll pass on the riots.
 
Well, then you should get your guests tee shirts that say ‘Browns’ on them, unless they want to go bare-chested with the Browns logo painted on their body.
 
The tee shirts are available here for only $100 and the paint is $50 a bottle.  And of course they’ll all need air guns and big foamy fingers.  Those are $25 apiece.
 
Well, I’ll think about that.  Maybe I can ask somebody.   
 
So, what is a football game like?  Is it like basketball?
 
No, Ma’am.  There’s a bunch of confusing rules and the guys whale on each other, but they’re all wearing a whole bunch of protective gear and they grab each others' asses a lot.
 
<Inaudible mumbling.>
 
Thanks anyway.  I guess I’ll see what’s going on at the museum. 
 
Bye.
 
<Loud click.>

Do they still play football in Cleveland?  One of these day if I can think up a good reason I will make my way over to Cleveland.  I will have to concede this. Ohio State will beat Michigan(ckoke) this year.

Lets us please get it right. Holly is not a blonde and it was the Steelers/Browns game.

I don't know much about the Browns, but how do they count in Detroit?
0-1, 0-2, 0-3, 0-4, 0-5, 0-6. 0-7, 0-8....

No, it's not a joke exactly.
 
I would have a conversation pretty much like the one in the Op about most any sport you can name.  What is the appeal of watching people drive around in circles, or beat one another within an inch of their lives?  What for Gawd's sake is the appeal of even playing golf, never mind watching someone else do it?  If I find myself in a  lovely manicured garden I enjoy to looking at and smelling the plants and wandering.  I think such places are gorgeous. 
 
I can't understand giving up rich pleasure to watch someone else hit a teeny-weeny ball with specially made sticks.  
 
I've watched people get as exercised about a sports team as some of us have about the election for U.S. President being held today. If their team doesn't not win -- especially against a 'rival'-- they actually get depressed snd stressed out.  About a game?  Really?  thus justy mystifies me.    
 
I also think it's very, very unusual to  be so 'sports-blind'.   The phenom is just a silly, randm bit in the world..  That's why I posted it here.  It amuses me, so I wrote the Op tongue-in-cheek style.

See, my calls that find me talking to someone from India usually end up like this:


Tech Support:  'alo dis is insertindiscernablenamehere, 'ow may I help you, please.

Me:  Hello, this is insertmmy namehre, what was your name again?

Tech Support:  'alo dis is insertindiscernablenamehere, 'ow may I be of service sir.

Me:  (heavy sigh)  Ok, (insert technical problem here)

Tech Support:  insert indiscernable technobabble with impossible to interpret Indian accent.

Me:  (heavy sigh)  Sir, I'm sorry, but I am having difficulty understanding what you are saying.

Tech Support:  insert indiscernable technobabble with impossible to interpret Indian accent.

Me:  (exasperated sigh)  Sir, umm, huh?  I don't understand what you are saying. 

Tech Support:  I am speaking in English ma'am.  What are you not understanding?

Me:  All of it, can you try speaking American?

Tech Support:  Please Hold miss.

Well perhaps you could tell us that up-front next time.
