    Death, taxes, and Laine, Jenner, and Boqvist being on the IR.

    Has anyone ever heard of the “Cheater Man” down in section 112 in NWA? Dude with a jersey that says “Cheater Man” and lifts up his jersey and sweatshirt to show a shirt that says “Sidney is a girl’s name”?

    He’s a national treasure.
