A Common Problem

Issue: Sitting down to eat directly underneath a television mounted on the wall of a restaurant.
Why? Maybe because the guy sitting across the room eating his burger either appears as though he is gawking at YOU while you eat your meal when he is really watching ESPN (creepy, I know) or is so enthrawled in the game that he forgets one or both of the following: 1. You can't let your mouth hang open after a spectacular play when there is food in said mouth or 2. You can't jabber with your friends or yell at the officials with (again) food in your mouth. Both of these maneuvers may be acceptable on your couch at home but they are NOT ok in a public restaurant. Man, it got weird.
