Today, I jokingly told my die-hard Laker fan dad that I converted to become a Celtics fan. He responded, "Get out of my car." I'm currently sitting on a sidewalk, trying to convince him it was a joke. FML

Today, my dad tried to convert me, as he has numerous times before, and asked me why I was an atheist. After giving him a polite explanation and asking him if we could drop the subject, he nodded slowly and said, "You must be menstruating or something. You'll change your mind." FML

Today, while I was waiting at the bus stop, a car that looked like my mom's pulled up. Thinking it was actually her, I walked up and jokingly asked what she was into. The guy inside now thinks that I'm a prostitute. FML

Today, I argued heavily with my dad over being dragged to a family game of lacrosse. All through the game, he kept "accidentally" hurling the ball straight at me on the sideline. After he eventually nailed me straight in the heart, he screamed at me to "get out of the fucking way". FML

Today, I told my girlfriend I was quitting the town baseball team. She said "Great. Now we can get someone with actual talent on the team." I laughed because I thought she was joking. She then replied "What's so funny?" FML

Today, I went for a run when my shin splints acted up, so I called my dad to have him come pick me up. When I saw his car approaching, I stuck out my thumb like a hitchhiker, as a joke. The car pulled over to give me a ride. It wasn't my dad. FML

Today, my dad walked in to the arena where I was watching a hockey game with my boyfriend and his friends. My dad was wearing a crazy grey mohawk wig/hat. Meanwhile, my boyfriend just finished telling me how embarassing it would be to be that guy's kid. FML

Today, as I was walking home from school with my guy friends, my dad pulled up by the sidewalk, offered me a handful of dollar bills and said, "Get in, baby." Only after we drove away and he started laughing did I realize I'll probably never hear the end of this at school. FML

Today, I took my girlfriend to meet my parents. My dad thought it'd be hilarious to act surprised and ask me if I'd already dumped the girlfriend I introduced him to yesterday. She slapped me and stormed out of the house before my dad could tell her it was a joke. FML

I suppose he eventually let you into the family again - maybe even his car. On a suspended sentence and strict probation terms. Stuff like that is not joke material 😂

We’re a Washington Redskins family for four generations. I had a cousin who married a Dallas Cowboys fan. We don’t know what ever became of her.

Do Americans take their favourite team really that serious? To me this sounds like a completely made-up religion where people worship a team as if it were a god.

Some people do take it that seriously and it’s honestly really sad and pathetic

That’s like if I went to my dads told him I’m a gators fan (we are from Miami - die hard UM hurricanes fans) then said just kidding. Don’t **** with dads and their sports teams

I've met and seen a lot of crazy sports fans over the years but the craziest are Green Bay packer fans because the team is owned by the citizens of Green Bay they call themselves cheeseheads and they will paint themselves green and gold in the winter sitting in the stadium half naked painted from head to toe 😬
