Tim recounts childhood memories of quiet, civilized US Open tennis with his grandfather versus today's loud crowds eating $100 caviar-dunked chicken nuggets, and mocks people obsessing over player rankings like Yannick Sinner.
- Tim decided he had to attend the US Open to feel like he'd lived.
- His grandfather used to take him to the US Open as a kid, where he once handed Martina Navratilova a towel.
- Tim's parents put him in a tennis clinic as a young child, hoping he'd become a tennis player.
- The US Open used to be completely silent, but now it's loud and democratized.
- Even in expensive courtside seats, people behind Tim were talking drunk and eating chicken nuggets with caviar on them.
- Tim tried the caviar nuggets and found them too salty—both the chicken and the caviar are overly salty.
