    Give drivers the freedom of their own remote control, and all hell can break lose. Lancaster, TX some person I will call "TV Rambo"
    walks in "I wanna watch the game" "I'm just gonna change it to the game, mumbles" meanwhile in the near full capacity TV room people are like WTH.
    Swift TV Rooms can be a crazy place at times, one of the audience members strikes back and says "You don't talk to me like that" and the TV Rambo
    declares "I just did" "I don't see you doing anything", it was like the wild west all of a sudden, everyone out of the recliners and dining tables, popcorn
    aroma fills the air. A stare off ensues, tempers are erupting, suddenly a video gamer jumps out of their fps gaming to provide security while chanting "its not worth it man"
    , "can't we all be friends". All of a sudden another quiet bystander blurts out "Grow the F up", TV Rambo replies "Oh now you got words for me too" seeming to
    want to take on the world.

    Meanwhile after a few more words and "you aren't worth its" are said the situation calms as the angry audience member does the best thing and just leaves. TV Rambo in shock makes a phone
    call seeming emotional while discussing how he was just "asking" to change the channel in his version and got yelled at by two people. Sorry TV Rambo you lost this one, but we all did want
    the game on when it came on, just didn't like your initial "I'm running things" approach. Now you know why most places wont leave a remote around.

    I never go into the TV rooms unless it's just to grab a coke out of the machine. Lancaster seems to be the place where there are always a ton of drivers hanging out and when you got that many truckers in one spot,somethings gonna happen!

    Ive seen it twice out in the smoking area the last two times I was there.

    In the short time I've been a driver, I've never spent any time in a ts TV room. If I wanted to know everything that is possible to know about trucking, I've got better sources.

    I never watched TV in a TV room at a terminal either. Can't handle whiners.

    (BTW, get Redd's panties back to him...clean or not.:biggrin_25521:)
