Re: Fandom Venting
(Anonymous) 2017-05-25 04:25 pm (UTC)(link)"Tickets are $70? That's reasonable for a casual fan?" and then homenotahotel kept doubling down on that! Then she bragged about how she spent $800 to see the Pens play in San Jose, which makes her a True Fan, unlike all those slacker Sens fans that can't afford $70.
These threads are incredible:

(Anonymous) 2017-05-25 05:06 pm (UTC)(link)I get piling on the media for being two-faced in their attendance narratives, but I don't understand being like this to other fans especially when Ottawa has a bunch of shit going on with govt workers not getting paid. Like, have a heart? Sports are not that important.

(Anonymous) 2017-05-25 05:45 pm (UTC)(link)In general NHL ticket prices are insane to me and if I was a hockey fan in a city like Toronto I could probably never even go to a game. Even if they get mocked, being a fan of a team with cheap prices seems much better lol. Maybe I just don't get it tho bc hockey here in Europe is very different.

(Anonymous) 2017-05-25 06:47 pm (UTC)(link)I could see wanting to be a STH if you had the income and planned on re-selling tickets/the bulk price was worth it for the number of games you wanted to see. But I just don't have it in me to drop $70 on a regular basis. If you're a single person, that's probably more than a week of food.

(Anonymous) 2017-05-25 10:03 pm (UTC)(link)How hard it is to just say, "I didn't think about the implications of what I was saying, I didn't mean to shame poor people," jfc. I guess this isn't really surprising especially considering who we're dealing with but c'mon, not even the rest of your friends are with you on this one. Watching homenotahotel go "well if you had *actually* asked me instead of attacking me you would have known that what I'm *really* criticizing is the organization not the fans!!!"... ok, and that has what to do with your bragging about blowing $800 to see the Pens in SJ?

(Anonymous) 2017-05-26 01:01 am (UTC)(link)Not surprising, you're right, but mind-boggling all the same. I can see someone so lacking in self-awareness letting their team loyalty get the better of them and lead them into stupidity... but when numerous people who are 1) Pens fans and 2) your friends/mutuals are openly aghast at your behavior... how can that not even give you a moment's pause??
Also, love freckledbutt responding to silent_parts with "you don't know me!!" (i.e., exactly what silent_parts pointed out which she is somehow objecting to??) and then immediately following up with "how many times will i cry today?"... be more white feminist, I dare you.
Re: Fandom Venting
(Anonymous) 2017-05-26 01:29 am (UTC)(link)freckledbutt complaining that people are talking shit about her financials is hilarious.
yeah, your finances and what you do with your resources is your own damn business, which is why you and your friends shouldn't go on a public forum and bring up how much money you've spent on a team as a benchmark for fan investment.
Re: Fandom Venting
(Anonymous) 2017-05-26 01:33 am (UTC)(link)She'd rather believe that people are personally attacking her rather than consider the valid criticism they are making... waaaaaaahhh...

(Anonymous) 2017-05-26 02:35 pm (UTC)(link)tbh I get most of my Pens fandom interaction via locked Twitters, though.
Re: Fandom Venting
(Anonymous) 2017-05-26 07:40 pm (UTC)(link)You might also try Pensburgh. The commenting community there is pretty fun, and really obnoxious opinions (re: rape, race discussions, etc) usually get dogpiled pretty fast.
