Soon everyone will be watching the game on some sort of screen and not actually be there physically to attend the match. Spectators instead will show up by proxy, having an avatar representing them in their seats.
Scarey but true. I went to the Musee D'Orsay in Paris about 18 months ago. Renoir, Monet, Van Gogh, Picasso to name a few.
And I watched a busload of Japanese tourists go around and not actually look at any of the artworks. They just took photos of them. I kid you not. Van Gogh's Starry starry night and they didn't even look at it. Just took photos. Their entire experience of some of world's most stunning artworks was via the screen of their camera.
Perhaps if they conducted art gallery tours like this people would look at the paintings more instead of photographing them. http://nga.gov.au/Calendar/NudeTour/
Imagine stopping to Picasso on that tour...

St.B, Louis CK is definitely provides some interesting social observations. I believe the 5th season of his TV series 'Louie' is a handful of episodes in. Looking forward to catching up on what I missed out thus far.
Yep he's sharp and funny. Have you seen his rave about mobile phones and aeroplanes or the one entitled, "Suck a bag of dicks"?

That's a sure fire way to frighten the kids away!
