Thrown out of a game for stealing a phone

[MisterCreosote]

I guess I'm done here. If nobody's buying that it was an honest mistake. I guess there's nothing left to say.

I don't believe you're a thief.

I also don't believe any of the three or four versions of the story you've told so far.

I don't believe you're a thief.

I also don't believe any of the three or four versions of the story you've told so far.

So if you had to guess what happened, what do you think happened?

 

[BTExpress]

So the consensus is I'm a liar, a thief and nobody believes anything to the contrary?

And that's the good news.

I don't think any of this happened. MAYBE someone in the press box misplaced their phone and was looking for it, and you concocted this whole story and came here in a need for attention.

Consider what you're saying ...

1) There were a bunch of phones sitting on the counter in the press box
2) You picked 1 up and put it in your pocket, without having any memory of doing so
3) You were so focused on the game that you didn't notice this phone in your pocket being called and pinged
4) The calling and pinging were so noticeable that this administrator asked you to look in a specific pocket, where you had this missing phone
5) You have a changing story about whether you also had your phone at the time, or you put your phone in this pile of phones
6) After all this, you think this administrator owes you an apology

Not one of these things makes any sense to have happened. But all of them? Complete bullship.

I have hearing in only one ear, my phone can ring or buzz or ding and be right near me and I still am not sure where it is coming from. I may not be the best person here to supply your defense, but that is the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth.

 

[BurnsWhenIPee]

Valid point.

But even if you couldn't place where it is coming from, as a phone continued to ring or buzz or ding without it being stopped by anyone, wouldn't you one time pull out your phone to see if it was yours?

So tell me what you think happened.

Did you ask hat guy?

This is infinitely more likely a scenario than the one you say happened.

 

[BTExpress]

So tell me what you think happened.

You were bored and decided to fork with us. Again.

 

[doctorquant]

Well, in this day and age, what with all the security, etc., built into smartphones, you'd have to be dumber than a forkin' fencepost to try to steal one. So ...
