Face Painters

[Navin R Johnson]

I was unable to attend either of the home games due to work, had tix for last night that went unused unfortunately .    Watched both games from a hotel room, smoking cigarettes, drinking beer and refreshing the gamezone (which was very therapeutic btw).

One of the running themes in the gamzone threads was the number of double-digit IQ folks at MMP with face paint.   Basically everytime FOX showed the crowd, it was of either a SOX fan or an Astro fan with face paint.

So for those at the game, were there really that many face painters at the game?

Also, is anyone here a face painter or know a face painter (over the age of that can give us some insight into to the thought process that goes into leaving your house with paint on your face?

I don't think you should rag on folks just for supporting their team.

I saw a few, but I thought they were great because most were kids.  I personally wouldn't do it, just 'cause of all that gunk on your face.  But you should have seen my car.  The windows were painted red & gold w/ the Astros logo on the back, the stars on the side.  Oh, yeah, and flags.

they had a booth set up outside the park for that.

There were a couple of very nice looking women who had well placed stars painted on the upper part of their chests.  I really admired those paint jobs.
