Elaine’s son is a die hard Bills fan and came to visit for the Patriots / Bills game. During the game they got drunk and got into a fist fight over the game. They laughed it off, but Elaine is worried they got too physical and it’s a problem. What would you do if a fist fight broke out between your family during the Patriots / Bills game.
Jonathan: All right, here’s what we got from Elaine. She says, Jonathan and Ayla, I love your show so much. So happy to have the team back together. However, not exactly happy at home because something horrible happened over the weekend. Well, at least I thought it was horrible. You know how that goes, right? She then goes on for paragraphs about how things are bad at home.
Ayla: How, okay? You think things are bad, but not necessarily. Everybody thinks they’re bad.
Jonathan: Things are bad. Here’s what happened. My son, who lives in Upper New York, was over for the Bills Patriots game. He always comes down once a year for one of the games and it sometimes gets a little rowdy because my husband is a diehard Pats fan. But for the most part, it’s fine.
Ayla: Okay.
Jonathan: Yesterday, however, that was not the case. My husband and son decided to play some kind of drinking game during the game.
Ayla: I hope their son is like 27 and not like…..
Jonathan: Well, he lives in upper New York so I’m assuming he is going to be an adult. Because they only let adults live in New York.
Ayla: I love that. You’re calling it upper New York, too.
Jonathan: What is it? Northern New York. Upstate, whatever. I don’t know what the drinking game was, so don’t ask. Before the game was even over, I was upstairs. I heard some screaming and cursing coming from downstairs. And then the sound of glass breaking. Apparently my son got so mad that he threw his glass on the ground and broke it. My husband didn’t like that, and he tackled my son and they started fighting. I come downstairs, see them on the floor. I tried to break them up. Before I knew it, they were standing and throwing punches.
Ayla: Oh, my God.
Jonathan: My son landed a jab right to my husband’s face.
Ayla: No.
Jonathan: And then my husband punched my son in the chest, which made him double over. And while he was double over, he punched my husband. Below the belt.
Ayla: Wow
Jonathan: They both fell down while I was screaming at them. And then they started laughing.
Ayla: I knew it. And I was going to guess, they started laughing.
Jonathan: The next thing you know, they’re standing and hugging and laughing and cleaning up the living room and apologizing to me.
Ayla: Psychotic.
Jonathan: After my son left, my husband said, quote, He doesn’t visit enough and then passed out on the couch for the rest of the night. What the hell? That’s from Elaine. Should she be worried that her husband and son got into a fistfight over a football game because they’re playing some drinking game? She doesn’t elaborate on that. I would also be worried about how soon her son drove back home to upstate New York.
Ayla: I bet he just went up to his childhood bedroom and went to bed.
Jonathan: No, she said he went home.
