Dodgers Fans Booed Sanjaya

I'll confess, I don't watch American Idol. But, I'm familiar with this Sanjaya character, namely because I own a television and a laptop -- the dude's face is inescapable lately.

Well, he was in the stands at a recent Dodgers-Padres game and let's just say he got served by the home crowd.

From the Times of India:
"He was just sitting there having a good time with his friends, just like a regular person. And when the Dodger camera noticed him, the cameraperson ran over and taped him."

"Sanjaya's face pops up on the big screen right away. At first he smiled, he seemed to like the attention. But then the entire crowd at the stadium started to boo and it was loud! His smile faded a bit and his eyes looked sad," said an eyewitness who was at the Dodger stadium to watch the game.

"It's like he was trying to keep a fake smile on, but you could tell he was crestfallen. He just kept waving and smiling for a few seconds more then his image went off the screen," added the eyewitness.
The booing was probably a bit unwarranted here. I don't remember him striking out to end the inning or anything. But, I mean, the guy has to deal with Simon Cowell all the time. What a big meanie that guy is! So, you know, I'm sure everything worked out OK for all parties involved.

Rock on, Los Angeles.
