Try not to cringe while watching these Trail Blazers fans play tic-tac-toe
This is so excruciating to watch.
The concept of tic-tac-toe is simple: You and a rival take turns placing X’s and O’s on a 3-by-3 grid until one of you gets three in a row. This Trail Blazers’ variation just includes a stipulation that you have to make a layup to place a marker on the grid. You would hope most people understand how the game works. Apparently, these two Trail Blazers fans forgot. Let’s just try to figure out where things went wrong.
Exhibit A: X has to figure out where to place her marker after O just placed hers
The best placement would be in the open square in the middle row that has two O’s. Please put that there, X. Make a block.
OH, FOR THE LOVE OF GOD.
Exhibit B: X made a layup! Now’s her second chance to block — OH MY GOD NO YOU CAN’T DO THAT
PUT IT SOMEWHERE ELSE
Oh, this is just horrifying. Not only did X not block O in the middle row, but O also messed up by not ending the game right there in the middle row. Instead, O blocks X in the top row, extending this really bad game of tic-tac-toe.
Exhibit C: Yeah, I don’t know. The game’s over. O wins.
If you ever want to destroy someone’s soul, just show them one of the worst games of tic-tac-toe ever.
