Foam is gross

with march madness just around the corner, surely there will be no shortage of college basketball fans proclaiming their team is “number 1″.  to further the sentiment, some die-hards will wear foam fingers at the arena.  while i fully support the use of foam fingers as a novelty item, i do have to say that foam is gross.  foam fingers are normally made out of that cheap, standard chemical foam.  merely touching this type of foam with the pads of my fingers gives me the willies, i can’t imagine wearing it for two halves of intense collegiate hoops.  besides, how am i supposed to eat my nachos while wearing a giant hand that says “green wave is #1″!
