Big & Rich Concert



Recommended Posts

Last night I went to the Big & Rich concert at the Corn Palace here in Mitchell, SD. Myself and another "big" gal I work with took 2 people in wheelchairs. We got front row seats! We were within touching distance from the stage and the group! What an awesome show! They made everyone feel special!

After the show we slipped out a side door. A rather large man himself...no skinny was holding the door open for people. He made the comment as the gal I work with passed by..."She needs a cow bell on her!" I was P.O.ed! I don't think she ever heard the comment and I never mentioned it. But it hurt my feelings as well. If I would have thought quick enough I could have "accidently" rammed him in the leg with the wheelchair I was pushing! Some people are just SO rude and immature.

UGGGGGHHHHHHHHHH.....I was happy until reading that. It has totally pissed me off. I would send a nasty letter to the establishment and the band telling them about this person and his comment. I would want an apology, free tickets, something. I am sorry you guys had to be exposed to that that that a--hole . JERK

Thanks for all your kind words. I know we have all been there a time or two. No wonder there is so much hate and disrespect in the world.

Talk about your BAD KARMA.

I just try to remember that the person is obviously suffering if they feel the need to lash out at others.

LOL! I did email the director of the Corn Palace where the concert was held. He emailed me back and apologized for that man's comment. He also promised if the man was an employee he would be disciplined. After thinking about it, the man could have been with the carnival or just another concert goer, but anyhow he should not have said what he did! Thanks again to everyone who commented on this thread.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
