Rosie's slide into obscurity is a bumpy path indeed.

[RANGERAIRBORNE]

Well, I hope she paid for TWO seats!

[Paul Atreides]

Witnesses said the woman was apparently handicapped and walked with a limp.

What a shock.

[Brett66]

I don't get it. This is unusual for a Cher concert?

[Paul Atreides]

"Why would you try to get a 400-pound woman out of her seat with handicapped people all around?"

Heaven forbid they should blame the foul-mouth, intoxicated whale sitting there hollering during the concert.

Besides, they are called physically challenged and she is a person of size.

[Paul Atreides]

I don't get it. This is unusual for a Cher concert?

Yeah. It is usually 400-pound homosexual men they have to worry about.

[_Jim]

I'm sorry ... but I'm seeing the need more and more often at public gatherings to have animal trainers on hand to 'handle' some of these 'special' cases ...

[dighton]

By the hair on the hump of the Prophet's camel! (PBUH)

I knew this woman, comely and ample of flesh, but lured by the deceits of Shaitan, I uttered thrice "talak" in her presence.

Thus her present madness, with roots in desire unfulfilled. Thus the fault is upon my head.

[shadowman99]

I love that this happened at a Cher concert!!! I can just hear it!

Cher: Babe! I got you babe!
Fatty: F*CK YOU!!
Cher: I got you babe!
Fatty: F*CK YOU don't touch me you f*ckers!!!
Cher: I got you (M*THERF*CKER!!!)

I hope this lady can make it to Cher's appearance in Novemeber 2004 when she performs at the DNC convention.

[Fred Mertz]

My first thought was that she was your wife _Jim. Is she or isn't she?

Be truthful now.

[etcetera]

"...a 400-pound, intoxicated, foul-mouthed female fan...dressed in a cowboy hat, tank top and jeans..."

I really didn't need that image in my brain....

[TheErnFormerlyKnownAsBig]

Aghhhhh, ohhh ohhhh ohhhhhhhh! It sounds like Sam Kinnison's long lost fraternal twin has been found.

[RightWhale]

There was a moose in my yard after supper tonight, bedded down for the night, but when I asked it to leave, politely, it got up and left. No problem. It was probably 800 pounds, and well-mannered; Cher would have been proud.

[Husker24]

Personally I would find this much more interesting than the Cher concert.

[shaggy eel]

,,, spillover BUMP. Hard lard?

[_Jim]

Are you saying that any woman would have had to 'grow' into the role of being my wife?

You wouldn't be far from the truth with that concept (the Walter E. Williams concept of 'raising the wife') but it isn't the case here ...

[Ken H]

A big round of applause to the Events Staff for pulling their share of the load, but if I were in charge, I would have also called the police.

If there had any been significant injuries to anyone involved, the Events Staff's employer would become a ham sandwich for some liability attorney.

[general_re]

"Three female and one male First Union employees, all wearing golf shirts with "Event Staff" emblazoned on the back, appeared in Section 102 as Cher appeared onstage astride a fake, life-size elephant, witnesses said."

So put your big, fat hand in mine,
There ain't no pachyderm we can't climb...

[FITZ]

That's the same thing I was thinking as I read the article.
