Keep Your Taps to Yourself! [11.24.08]

Today's happening occurred at a high-traffic location - the Mund college center entrance. My friend and I were walking toward the college center when we wound up behind a line of athletes. Everything was well and good, until the first athlete approached the door. He held the door open for his comrades, and as each of them walked through it, he gave them that mannish athletic tap on the tush. Everyone should know what I am talking about - the bum love tap that football players receive after great plays. Anyway, my friend and I saw this happening and it did not really register until we arrived at the doorway. There the athlete stood, still in the love-tap mode, while my friend and I were in no mood to be love-tapped. Thankfully, our eyes met, he awkwardly changed gears, and we all breathed a sigh of relief.
