The goal “Stool Sports” he tagged him and hit him hard: “This isn’t a guy who just wanted to see Hitch last night; I’m guessing this person has seen the 2005 movie before. This guy wanted to send a message. You want everyone on that plane to know you are consider yourself as a superior being because he would never have been involved in such a menial activity as watching the Super Bowl,” he wrote.
Others have tried to defend it: “To be honest, all you have to do is look at the screen next to you and can watch Hitch and the Super Bowl at the same time” wrote one.
“Maybe they don’t like sports, I love sports and thought the Super Bowl was a good game, but who am I to judge anyone that you don’t see it on your screen, especially when you can look at your neighbor’s screen,” added another.
