Big & Rich Concert

Last night I went to the Big & Rich concert at the Corn Palace here in Mitchell, SD. Myself and another "big" gal I work with took 2 people in wheelchairs. We got front row seats! We were within touching distance from the stage and the group! What an awesome show! They made everyone feel special!

After the show we slipped out a side door. A rather large man himself...no skinny was holding the door open for people. He made the comment as the gal I work with passed by..."She needs a cow bell on her!" I was P.O.ed! I don't think she ever heard the comment and I never mentioned it. But it hurt my feelings as well. If I would have thought quick enough I could have "accidently" rammed him in the leg with the wheelchair I was pushing! Some people are just SO rude and immature.

Unreal! Makes ya wonder whats making HIM so depressed that he has to tear apart a total stranger! Good for you for not taking off a limb or two on your way past him!

UGGGGGHHHHHHHHHH.....I was happy until reading that. It has totally pissed me off. I would send a nasty letter to the establishment and the band telling them about this person and his comment. I would want an apology, free tickets, something. I am sorry you guys had to be exposed to that that that a--hole . JERK

Thanks for all your kind words. I know we have all been there a time or two. No wonder there is so much hate and disrespect in the world.

Talk about your BAD KARMA.

I just try to remember that the person is obviously suffering if they feel the need to lash out at others.

LOL! I did email the director of the Corn Palace where the concert was held. He emailed me back and apologized for that man's comment. He also promised if the man was an employee he would be disciplined. After thinking about it, the man could have been with the carnival or just another concert goer, but anyhow he should not have said what he did! Thanks again to everyone who commented on this thread.
