VIDEO: Fan Behind Home Plate at Astros-Mets Perfectly Captures What Everyone Thinks of Houston
The Houston Astros have a lot of people around MLB extremely angry. Based on early crowd reaction, that has clearly extended beyond the playing field to the fans -- the team has already faced loud boos, trash cans being banged, and cheating-related signs. But there was one specific fan at the game between the Astros and the New York Mets on Wednesday that perfectly captured just how everyone is actually feeling.
Tell us how you really feel!
Nothing says true animosity like two polite thumbs down.
This scene is Spring Training baseball in a nutshell, and should be hung up in a museum. For all the hate surrounding the Astros, this fan decided the best way to show disapproval was with the classic thumbs down approach famously used by one Patrick Star and other legendary cartoon characters. It even appears she is booing as well. Just so much hate to take in at once.
The best part is that the Astros players don't seem to care. George Springer can't see the vicious thumbs down behind him, but it almost appears he is grinning at the whole thing. No matter what other fans try to do this year, it will be hard to top this scene from Wednesday. Nothing can beat the simplicity of it all.
