This is why I can’t take my son to an Eagles or Phillies game yet. He’s not old enough to be subject to such vile trash. Sadly there are too may around here, especially these days.
PHILADELPHIA - April 16, 2010 – A New Jersey man is facing charges after police say he intentionally vomited on an 11-year-old girl in the stands during a Phillies game.
Twenty-one-year-old Matthew Clemmens of Cherry Hill, N.J., was arraigned early Friday morning on charges stemming from an incident during Wednesday night’s Phillies-Nationals game.
Police say Clemmens began trying to make himself vomit on an off-duty police captain and his family after a companion was removed from the stadium for unruly behavior.
Easton police Capt. Michael Vangelo says he saw Clemmens put his fingers down his throat and throw up, hitting Vangelo and his 11-year-old daughter. Philadelphia police say Clemmens also punched Vangelo and vomited on an arresting officer.
Clemmens was in custody Friday morning on charges including assault and harassment. Bail was set at $12,000.
A phone number for Clemmens was disconnected Friday morning.
I probably would have beat him to room temp. Serious.
I typically would try to avoid that sort of thing which could change my whole life forever, but this is some sort of gray line in my psyche that would unwind very quickly on this tub.
For what it might be worth, myself and some other well abled friends handedly dealt with this type numerous times before over the years at what was the Vet. If we were disturbed by a group of these stereotypical loud fu*ks and they didn’t quiet down, it was often either us or them (usually them) being led out of the place after a “reprimand” of sorts. Boy the stories I could tell you.
Never thought twice about it while in my 20’s and even early thirties. Really felt at the time like we were doing everyone else a service, in fact. Looking back, we were probably part of the problem, just on the better end. But there honestly were numerous times we were thanked by those around us as well, so maybe it balanced out.
But as a father I now want no part of it on any level. I’ll leave that to the next generation, the one’s that fattened his face up even more than it already is. That was no surprise whatsoever.
Yeah, I’m a new member here so you must have missed my posts where I said I am from Philadelphia. I know how you South Jersey guys are treated, so I didn’t mean any offense to you, hence the big laughing smiley.
I went to Drexel for a while but I graduated from Rowan/Glassboro State.
North Jersey on the other hand is a whole nother story…
