Remember when you came home from basketball tryouts and had to report to your father that you made the JV team? This wouldn’t be so humiliating if you weren’t a senior, but whether you like it or not, you were only chosen to be on the team to drive the kids to the games when the parents were absent. Do you remember the look on your father’s face when you told him all the resources he sunk into you were wasted? Of course you do, that shit stays with you like bad credit.
There are very few instances when the roles are reversed, when the father shoulders the humiliation and the offspring gives that look of sheer disappointment. Welp, that’s exactly what happened at the Rangers game last night when a father tried to reel in a. souvenir for his hopeful son.
Spoiler alert: he failed. And lost a $12 stadium beer in the process.

So much for inspiring your son to become a baseball player, bruh. Have fun going to his fencing matches in 5 years!
