Meltdowns are contagious Iv'e seen one partner start to have a meltdown and watch it carry over to his partner. I have seen them carry over from one boat to another. Example one day in the pool couple of guys were wearing them out anchored and throwing bobbers when two other guys saw them catching fish and tried to anchor near their spot and fish the same hole by anchoring across from them and casting into the same area. Well before long they started crossing each others line getting tangled and then the wind came up and blew them right into the area they were catching the fish from. That's when the meltdowns started, LOL they started cussing, yelling, at each other inviting each other to the bank and what not. Another guy started to have a meltdown yelling at them because he had his kids in the boat and let them know he did not appreciate their language. It was a meltdown Rodeo!!! The guy with his kids in the boat stopped a sure enuff fight between grown men on the bank over a fish, when he said "come on guys" I got my kids in the boat, that led to cooler heads and everybody went about their business.
