SportsGrid’s Best Of 2010: Guy At US Open Makes Case For “Worst Person Ever”

Seeing as how 2010 is drawing to a close, we figured we’d give you a second viewing (or first, don’t be shy!) of some of our best posts from the year that was. Whether they captured a defining moment from this year, reflected some of our better work, or were just too off-the-wall not to include, we’ll be running through our favorites on Christmas day. In this post: a tennis match is lovely venue to show off your douchieness.

Hey, who wants to see a tennis fight? This one features a wildly-gesticulating young man arguing with an equally-excited older woman during the Djokovic vs. Petzschner match. The shouting match in of itself is extreme for the US Open.

But things take a turn into crazytown at the 1:09 mark, when the woman’s even-older husband comes in and actually starts fighting the young bro. Bodies go flying, a commotion is caused, and then the older woman herself gets in on the action.

Eventually the young man, who is quickly turned on by everyone else in the stands, is thrown out, and order is restored. But not before Queens once again stakes its claim as New York’s classiest borough.

UPDATE: SPORTSbyBROOKS posted more video of the incident. We’ve embedded the new footage, featuring a hearty slap to the young man’s face by the older woman, below.
