Who is Becky? Colorado Rockies' scoreboard's blunt message about Titan submersible leaves many in splits

'That crushed Titanic sub has more life inside it than that collapsed troll cave you call a chest cavity,' the message read

DENVER, COLORADO: Fans at the Colorado Rockies' ballpark were left astonished as the scoreboard operator played a humorous prank on a woman named "Becky." Initially displaying 'Game Notes' before the start of the game, the scoreboard suddenly switched to a brutal breakup message, leaving spectators amused and surprised. 

The screen read, "Using a stethoscope to listen to the heart, cardiologists can detect narrow valves, valve leakage, and/or abnormal rhythm," but the second sentence said, "Don't bother asking him to check YOUR heart though, Becky. That crushed Titanic sub has more life inside it than that collapsed troll cave you call a chest cavity."

Who is Becky?

The clever prank on the Colorado Rockies' scoreboard sparked a social media frenzy, with fans and viewers expressing their amusement and curiosity. People were intrigued by the identity of the mysterious "Becky" and speculated about the story behind the breakup message. Suzie Hunter, a reporter who initially tweeted the picture, said, "Whoever runs the scoreboard at Coors Field is NOT OKAY."

'Becky hurt that person deeply'

One user tweeted, "Game Notes sure have changed since my time covering baseball at Coors Field." Another added, "That's one way to quit your job." A third said, "Game on Suzie… you must find Becky and get her side of this story! It clearly has more potential than the Rockies at this point!" "I kind of want to meet Becky now," a fourth quipped, while a fifth added, "The most entertaining part of the Rockies season so far." "Can we get Becky’s side of the story?" asked one, while another said, "Becky hurt that person deeply."

In addition to the recent prank targeting "Becky," the Rockies' scoreboard has a history of pulling off other humorous and attention-grabbing stunts. Over time, it has become known for its creative and playful displays on the screen. One message read, "Life Pro Tip: Don't put up with anyone who is reckless with your heart. Life will be dramatically better if you don't pay mind to any heartbreaker. Unless it's the Pat Benetar song. Or the Mariah Carey song. Or the Led Zeppelin song. So, to sum up: Song Form Heartbreaker = OK. Real-life Heartbreatker = Tell 'em to scram."

Another time, the scoreboard was motivational, saying, "Repeatedly asking someone to 'come see about me'? Take your own advice! Asking for attention is exponentially less effective than earning it. Invest in you. Take a walk, read a book, spend time in thought. Find out who you are and water the roots. Be confident. Be yourself. The right people will take notice. And those who don't? Their loss."
