A Question

Which convention of bystanders in musicals is stranger? When they walk by some bloke singing a song to himself and act as if they aren't seeing something unusual, or when a dozen or so of them stop what they're doing and join in, often with surprisingly elaborate choreography? Obviously, the knee-jerk reaction is to say it's the latter. But if you think about it, there's a certain "When in Rome" mindset there that one might find almost admirable. In a way, it's the ones who don't notice that there is the possibly dangerous individual caterwauling on a street corner who seem more wrong.

Also, John Smoltz got strikeout number 3000 tonight. Which is awesome.
