Am I the only person who thinks the towel waving at baseball games has become an annoyance?
Years ago I traveled on business and tried to attend baseball games. The first time I saw the towel waving was at a Twins game when fans were given these towel to wave and wave they did often no apparent reason. Gradually it spread to other ball parks but I said to myself (a New Yorker at the time) that this fad would never reach NYC, I thought this trend would never be seen in Yankee Stadium or at that time Shea Field. Well that vision was put to the test when I saw Met fans doing the very same thing. Oh, well, so much for sophisticated New Yorkers!
Now it seems impossible to see a game without this incessant waving of towels. I find it annoying and wonder if it's just me.
