Seattle will require closed captioning for TVs in bars, restaurants and stadiums
https://www.seattletimes.com/seattle-ne ... ums/?amp=1

Countdown to SJWs bitching that all the state enforced closed captions are in English ....
:doh:
Why do they want to make television viewing at the bar worse for deaf people?

No one at the bar can hear the screen. We are all deaf to what the announcer is saying... why would you want to clutter the screen?
I was going to ask exactly that. I can think of zero times I could hear the noise coming from the television at these types of establishments. It'll be brutal for games. We can currently watch without hearing and generally understand what's going on. Add in CC, and now you have to decide if you are going to watch what happens or read what happens. They will never be in sync with each other.

My dad used to listen to the local announcer on WGN for football while turning the volume off on the tv. It was super annoying.

Who even goes to bars anymore? I used to be a barfly, but I haven't set foot at the bar in years.

If there's a particular football game we want to see, we'll go for that. We mostly only get the Dolphins, and neither of us care about that.

Also, 20-somethings to to bars.

I can't abide giant sports stadiums anymore neither.

The value pick is the Seattle Thunderbirds of the WHL at the ShoWare Center. Tickets are $22

We don't go to sports events based on price tag. I only go if I care about the color of the laundry on the field.

I'm taking Nerd to Jacksonville for the game opener against the Chiefs. He wants to see that freak of nature (Mahomes,) in person, at least once. Tickets were ridiculous, but it's his birthday present.

I'm not paying $14 for a beer when I can drink a $2 beer and watch it on tv.

In terms of socialized drinking, I just hang out with the hockey dads at the local arenas.

Wherever my nephew is playing we just tailgate in the parking lot and then the wives drive everybody home.

Chance we get any one Chiefs game (or Bears,) down here is very low. If we want to see it, we have to plan to see it.

I have actually chosen the Chiefs as my new NFL team.

Joe Montana Team II

So I might make an exception for Arrowhead Stadium, that's old school.

Craft beers around here run about five dollars for a pint.

Or whatever you call beer brewed on site. Not a huge drinker. Two glasses and I am drunk these days.

We used to have to tailgate on the DL because it was technically illegal.

But now Premiere Dougie Ford has legalized tailgaiting in Ontario.

Let freedom ring.
