Sit down and shut up

Do you ever suspect that some people have too much time on their hands?

I do. In fact, I can prove it:

A guy named Jim Purol just set a new Guinness World Record for “Most Seats Sat in 48 Hours.”

On Wednesday, he sat on his 39,250th seat in the Rose Bowl in Pasadena, Calif., after starting on Monday. Sometime soon he hopes to sit in the 92,542nd and final seat.

This guy must be the Barry Bonds of competitive seating. He once sat in all 107,501 seats at the University of Michigan’s football stadium.

Isn’t that fascinating?

No, it isn’t.

Isn’t that weird?

Yes, it is.
