There are a lot of times in life when we have to follow rules... Some our society has decided for us and some are unwritten, but yet followed by the "great mass"... The latter I find are quite funny to discuss about, but when it comes to the written ones I have a generic attitude: I follow them.
What once in a while surprises me, especially when working as a steward during soccer games at the highest level here in Sweden as well as when the Swedish national teams plays, is that people seem to forget that written laws are to be obeyed even there. It also applies no matter how drunk you might be!
I can understand, not forgive, teens (generally boys) with a lot of hormones running around in their bodies as well as (sadly far too much) booze and sometimes even drugs; that they might do stupid things during games as well as around the arena.
Though what the "youngsters" does not get, is that these "mistakes", as the teens as well as sometimes angry parents call it, have long term effects if the police gets involved. Their driving license might been postponed or withdrawn (and since people get it on "probation" for the first two years at least here in Sweden- if you get it withdrawn you might have to do it all over again), the ability to get employment might be affected etc. etc... Is it worth those 10 secs of "fame" for getting all this trouble later on? Don't think so preppy! Keep sober and act with at least a bit of brain pls!
The worse kind is the older (pls don't read me by the letter here- think 30-40 years-old) visitor that just leave the brain at home. Usually this character is not that drunk, but just plain nuts...
Yep, know the stats around the general amount of people with mental disorders and stuff, but those are not the ones I am talking about.
It's the family fathers and CEO:s and... just someone like the man on the street. When removing someone from this category from my team's home arena, you might be called the most imaginative words. Didn't know there were so many variations available for whore for example... For those of you in above category reading this; YES, the rules applies for you too!!! Stay sober and stay sane is my advise. That way we all can enjoy the game.
Kind thanks to all readers. Nighty night :)!

Yep, the story tells itself...
Oh, how many times have I not told myself to LISTEN to my gut feeling! The well-payed job turned out to be something like "Dallas" or "Dynastin" (what was it with the 80-ties and soap operas :)?).
I eventually almost got caught in the middle of it, but luckily could get back to the side lines again (funny how that happens- things that I had nothing to do with and had started a long time before I came into office was suddenly (partly) my fault?).
Now things seem to settle a bit, but a job that gives you the jitters every time you step into the office (ever been there anyone?)... Hmm, there are still curios people out there luckily...
