SFGATE columnist Rod Benson, 6-foot-10, has a hot take... depending on your perspective. dlvr.it/S9sZvN
Columnist Rod Benson was at a bar watching a game when his phone vibrated. His friend had tagged him in a tweet about tall people standing in front of shorter people at a concert and blocking the view of others.
One reply to Benson said “Nah. At least go to the side at a show. If you don’t need to climb on a cabinet to get a cup in your own home, I’m not here for ya.”
Benson felt the need to respond, as a former professional basketball player i.e. a tall human, and to stand up (...) for people of the outlier sort.
And then it turned into a normal Twitter discourse with hot takes back and forth. Benson's hot take? "The world at large has no idea how much more difficult things are for taller people than they are for shorter people," he writes.
"Very few people understand what truly tall life entails. I’m going to explain it the best I can, and if the people aren’t with me afterwards, then I’ll kindly walk my ass to the side of the next show."
