Odd...
I've never been told not to play or the like because of my weight(I weigh 320lbs). In fact, everyone I meet and/or play around at the arcades, whether it's someone I know or a complete stranger, have been nothing but supportive. I'm not that bad either.

Maybe it's just certain arcades that house those discrimatory jerks.

One thing I hate is when obese people walk by
and start laughing and pointing when me or others are playing.

I asked one to step up and play and she said no.
When people ( in this case) see something that takes the attention away from its makes them feel better, but are insecure with themselves...


For losing weight , you got to start somewhere,
Strange how folks say, " YOU NEED TO LOSE WEIGHT!!" but when you play the game they say," YOURE TOO BIG TO PLAY!!!"

As for Big people being good players;

Im not obese but am overweight ( weight almost 300 lbs)
and can still do songs like these:

Soooooo...the point of the OMG TEN MONTH BUMP! was?
On topic, I know a fat dude who plays, he's like freaking awesome...by local standards...which aren't THAT high...but still, he's pretty good.

My friend, she looks fat (but actually both slightly fat and big boned) and she plays DDR very well since her sis, is very good. I really don't mind, i am skinny and i still get some stares for some reason >_> but i don't care cause i just like playing with friends and meeting people who also play the same thing. E1.gif

I don't know what it is but (and I meant to quote the guy) whoever said that you're gonna get looks by playing DDR is right on the money. It's messed up that people are like that. Fortunately, I never had to deal with anything like that. Everyone I know, with the exception of a handful of people, that play are a little overweight and, well, we won't be entering any tournaments soon but we're pretty good. I say let em' stare and make comments all they want: none of 'em would have the nerve to do what we do!

Hah you guys are fat. Actually being big can be an advantage, as you don't have to press as hard to register steps, especially if your playing on a crappy pad (Mountasia)

But it's true? Most of the people in America are obese and overweight.

If you're overweight, you're by no means at an advantage - you're stamina will be worse and you won't be able to move as easily during fast double songs mostly.

As a general rule, fat people aren't in shape. Unless they're big.
