That dude needs to be kicked in the face.
what a douche
He's art Modell version 2.0
I like where the person behind or by the camera says, "You're just a pr***, that's what you are.", and Benson says, "Yeah, well what are you? Way to go Tom, snappy comeback!
From PFT.com;
They acquired an e-mail from Benson to Tags and other suits through a NO TV station...
QuotePaul, Roger, Jeff,
My trip to Baton Rouge was a total disaster. As my wife and the rest of my party left the suite, well before the end of the game, we were attacked by a number of hecklers who shouted obscentities [sic] at me and my party and put my wife and family in danger. Security was inadequate and nonexistent and we were led out through a hostile crowd on a very long route. If it had not been for my grandson and his friend, we could have all been severely injured or killed. In addition, the media was forcing cameras in our faces and slowing down our escape from a very dangerous situation and experience. We finally escaped without serious injury, but only due to luck and the intervention of my grandson and his friend. Secruity [sic] had completely abandoned us.
After this traumatic experience, I will not return to Baton Rouge for any reason, including any games scheduled for the end of this season or a contemplated next season. No person, much less the owner of an NFL team, should have either he, his family, or his friends subjected to this form of danger, intimidation, and abuse. We will not be back in Baton Rouge for any reason. I was advised not to go, but wanted to support the league. It was my mistake. I wanted each of you to know of this miserable experience and disappointment to me after i [sic] had tried to cooperate in every way.
Sincerely,
Tom Benson
What a flaming douche.
I really dig the "much less an NFL owner" line. Like being a really rich guy makes you better than the rest of us.
I hope he gets beaten by an angry mob.
i want someone to set his sack on fire and beat him over the head with a sledgehammer
