A San Diego Padres fan with the username @Eggorian used X (formerly known as Twitter) to find a date for a playoff game, specifying that they wanted a female Padres fanatic aged 30-55. Despite receiving over 100 direct messages, most were from men and women under 30 who did not match his criteria. However, he ended up going with a friend's recommendation and had what he described as a positive experience at the game where the Padres won against the Cubs.
