Very odd experience - cougarguard.com — unofficial BYU Cougars / LDS sports, football, basketball forum and message board

At the football game yesterday.

About halfway through the 2nd quarter an older gentleman...my guess would be in his 50's,,maybe 60's came and sat next to me.

He had a book with him.

I noticed it was the Harvard Public Law and Policy Review...or something like that......He was dressed in an old sport coat and slacks....and he ate a hot dog and had a drink...and would occassionally look up to watch some of the action....all the while reading his Harvard Law Review...and it was on the Chapter covering Same Sex Marriage.

Then he left near the end of the 3rd Quarter.

True story.

Now I'm just trying to figure out which one of you it was.

I think it's very clear it was BYU71 who was just trying to keep up with the lawyers on this board.

You think that would work? I would be very unimpressed if a guy wasted a perfectly good seat to the game sitting there reading up on gay-rights law. Or anything else for that matter.

Perhaps it was one of the three Nephites.

I went to a Jazz game once and there was an attorney there in his suit studying law books for the entire game. I gave him a hard time about it.

I don't know the way to Gidget's heart, just speculating.

On the other hand, I think it's a good idea to bring reading material to a baseball game.

Or skip the game and go to Starbucks to read your materials there.
