Repuke ruins Heart concert tonight

[Jackinbox]

Tonight I was at the Heart/Journey/Cheap Trick concert and this annoying guy about five rows back kept screaming "John McCain!! Barracuda!!" after every song Heart played. If I could have thought of a good retort, I would have said something back but I was trying to pay attention to the concert. Stupid idiot probably has no idea that Heart is appalled that he is using their song without permission.

1. Maybe he was being sarcastic?

I don't know.

[AzNick]

5. Sarcastic would have been doing it once ...

Doing it more than once is obviously proof he wanted to piss them off.

He probably converted a few people to Obama.

[VolcanoJen]

13. No, that guy was just being an asshole.

And he has no earthly clue (something tells me you don't, either) of the meaning behind the song "Barracuda."

2. moments like those make me wonder about the trajectory of a cup of beer...

.. if you get my drift. What an assbite he was!

[The Stranger]

3. Why does it seem like DUers never respond to the 'pukes, but always run back here to their keyboards

to tell us how they would have said something, could have said something, would have done something . . . but didn't.

Why the fuck not SAY SOMETHING IF YOU WANT TO SAY SOMETHING?

6. At least the OP admits he couldn't think of anything really good to say

I mean, why say something that makes you look stupider than the idiot making the comment

[Withywindle]

8. How clever do you have to be?

A simple "SHUT THE FUCK UP!" will suffice.

Now, I'm not usually Forward Miss Assertivepants either, but on the occasions I have been pushed to that limit, I've found it's almost always greeted with applause from people around me who'd been wanting desperately for someone to do just that.

12. Maybe the OP didn't want to get into a fight with a belligerent drunk?

[The Stranger]

17. But those are the best ones -- you use a subtle, engaging and razor wit to humiliate them in front

of everyone else there, and they can't quite figure out what to do about it.

Usually, they try to get away from the whole encounter.

[rpannier]

4. Was he covered in his own vomit???

Was he still wearing pants?

You should be careful around people like that...I hear stupidity is contagious.

7. Why the hell wasn't he escorted out? nt

[Apollo11]

14. It was a rock concert. You are allowed to yell at the band.

It was not like a college campus Q&A session with Senator Kerry - where people like that can expect to get tasered ...

[krkaufman]

9. So, did they play Barracuda? n/t

[Raine]

10. If something like that happens again call an usher

or security guard and tell them the person is being disruptive.

[Monk06]

11. Too bad Iggy wasn't on the bill. He would have crowd surfed over to the guy and kicked his ass.

[WeDidIt]

15. So where was this held? n/t

[and-justice-for-all]

16. I would have went with...

SHUT THE FUCK UP PIG!
