Im a huge NFL fan, and from August until February i bleed red, white, and navy blue out of my borderline obsession for New England Patriot football. Last year the Pats were playing at home in a game i was having aniety about for 3 weeks, the game started at 1:15pm est. My sunday patriots football ritual starts with me taking a shower at 1:00pm to avoid the anxiety ridden NFL preshows. My shower went ...as normal as a shower could go? I walk into my living room butt booty naked so i dont miss kick off. When i enter the living room i realise the TV was off, odd i always leave it on so i dont miss a single second. For the record i have COX basic cable... Turn the TV on and thats when stuff got very, VERY weird. There were both men AND woman on a green field that was easily atleast 20 yards wider and atleast another 50 yards longer! I cant tell you how long the field was as the NFL usually marks every 10 yards with an actual number, so what was very odd was the field was marked with what looked like roman numerals. Both oposing teams looked like they were all on the field for the coin toss which is veryyy odd considering only about 6-8 players all together from both teams join the ref for the coin toss. They were in a very strict and neat line extending from one side of the field to the other. Its gets so much more creepier... What i believe was referee or an official for this game holds something in the air and thats when i notice the commentators voices. They were obviously narrating what was going on but i couldnt understand one word they were saying because it sound like they were speaking extremely fast and backwards and that is best way i could describe it. The ref holds this object in the air, gives a quick sudden jerk of the wrist and this thing falls on what looks like an ordinary green football field and proceeds to spin like a dradle. The dradle stops and it dosent look like it falls towards a team or anything like that but the ref turns to the right as the fans (who i will get to because i have not seen them yet) absolutely erupt with joy, so i think its safe to say the home team won first possession of what ever the hell this is. The team that wins the...spin? Jumps up and down and congratulates one another as both teams head towards there respective sidelines. The teams...there was a scoreboard in the lower right corner. In what im guessing was the name of the teams were abriviated. The home team was TSK and the away team HHL. The men and woman all seemed to be wearing normal football equipment, but the color schemes for both teams were very odd, the home team was a mixture of a water color paint yellow and pink with brown trims while the away team was EVERYTHING white. No one had numbers on there jerseys or helmets but they did have names on the back of their jerseys but i could not make them out because all of them had letters that looked exactly like frat names or letters that go on hoodies and stuff like that. There were woman in full gear.... Some where on the sideline with there helmets off some with it on. Another weird thing was it looked like the players were all very drastic diffrent ages. Some of them looked like young teenagers maybe as old as 14, some looked as old as maybe early 40s. The commentators babble on and on about god knows what as the camera pans from the sideline to a shot of the absolutely- ridiculously -enormous stadium PACKED with what looked like hundreds of thousands of people. The sides of the stadium seemed as tall as skyscrapers. Out of the entire experiance that stadium is what made my jaw almost drop to the ground. The "people" looked like people, the numbers and letters seemed absolutely bizarre and off the colors didnt seem as... I dont know how to describe it? Full or dark like i said eralier, almost watercolor like i never saw a ball, i never saw a kick off because somesort of watermark aperared on the screen and it went to a commercial. It was an everyday run of the mill Nike commercial, than some local car dealer ships etc-etc. When the game "comes back on" And technically it did. The game commentator welcomed us back to The New England Patriots V.S. The Buffalo Bills, first quater Patriots up 14 to 7 I know i gave alot of detail above, but i only witnessed what i witnessed for maybe 20 solid seconds. Certainly not long enough to miss an entire quater of football. I was completely dry from shower and found my self but naked in my living room crouched down squinting at my TV trying desperately to wrap my mind around what i had just seen. It sounds amazing right? I wish it never happened...all it did was raise questions i dont think i will ever get answered, this might sound a little to cheesy but it did make me reevaluate my stance on things like life, god, reality, and just consciousness all together.

the team that won the "spin" was the hometeam as the crowd celebrated with them..
But there are a few things off with the story..
the abbreviated team names he reads fine but all the other letters are weird greek to him..
LOL
he does sound believable if you read the reddit and comments..
ehh who knows

Bizarre things do happen to people without any rational explanation, and they usually happen on an individual basis, so that no one believes it except the person who experienced it. Sometimes what happens can be very traumatic, and the person never gets over it, or it takes years to get over it. The football story doesn't seem to have anything that would be a purpose to it, so who knows what that was all about, if anything...
