If you're a young guy who has it even halfway together who likes to frequent bars and clubs you oughtta know that there are as many "smokin' hot" available and willing girls around as their are oxygen molecules. Way way too many fish in the sea to give even a three-minute thought--let alone a CD post--to one rude little girl with the manners of a hyena.
Forget about her this instant, young man. Get outta this forum and go on over to espn.com and check out some football scores & highlights.

We chat for like 20 seconds, she says "I'm meeting some friends so let me say hi to them and then I'll come back and talk to you". I'm cool with that, I'm religious about football so I'm occupied with the game anyway.

Well, she never came back to talk to me, she was literally 6 feet away from me, and some dudes were hitting on her so I'm sure she was busy with that. The game ended probably 30 minutes later, I was furious as they lost with 26 seconds left and all 3 timeouts in their pocket (damn that team), and I said "later" to my friends and stormed out of the bar and went home. My friends understand as I've done this before when the Vikes blow it and they don't mind, we meet up at the same bar every sunday to watch football. But I never said bye or tried to talk to that girl again.

Would this be considered rude to the girl?
First of all, she sounds to me like one of those self-centered ME ME its all about ME chicks that has to be the center of attraction and having the attention of just one boy isn't good enough for her...she needs and actually requires the attention of multiple boys.....so sad really...so shallow....

Second of all, she is a liar ( telling you she will come back to talk to you )...what a pathetic person she must be thinking she is so special that just maybe, just maybe she will be able to find a second or two out of her so very busy life to talk to little ole you. But then again most self-absorbed individuals usually are liars....its like part of their daily life-style

Third...your storming off angry out of the place over the ouctome of a sporting event must make the others around you really think to themselves.."What an as_hole!"

Get a grip on your emotions due to no girl will be attracted to a boy who can't keep his emotions under control....especially over a game..so silly..if you lose yourself over a football game I would think to myself "Imagine him losing control like that while with me"......

Also

Maybe my opinion of her and the situation is wrong..meaning maybe she was planning on coming back to chat with you for a bit but then she noticed what a hot head you were over a silly football game and decided to stay clear of you......that is a possiblity you know!

Yes.

Look, I like football as much as the next guy. But, ultimately, sports is a bunch of damned nonsense. Especially when it comes to matters of the heart. And when you're blowing off someone like that to watch a bunch of pituitary gland cases tussle over an inflated sac of leather, then you need to rejigger your priorities.

I'd give her a call and say, "Hey, I should have said 'bye.' How can I make it up to you?"

I thought you were going to ask whether it was rude of her to not come back like she said.

Not saying bye or trying to talk to her wasn't rude, IMO. You're under no obligation to say goodbye unless you were there to meet her, and it sounds like you ran into her by accident.

Storming out of the bar because your team lost would be rude to me, but I don't get worked up over sports.

This. It sounds like she was just trying to make a quick exit.

Maybe. Or maybe she just didn't want to talk to him in the first place, and said what she said to end the conversation. Either way, it doesn't sound like her not coming back really affected the OP's evening all that much.

She was there to hang with her friends. You just happened to be there. She gave you ~30 seconds of her time, and went back to talking with her friends. Unless you were her boyfriend or her best friend in high school, I don't see what the problem is here- she wasn't there to see YOU.

Better luck next time.

It was a set up dude(OP), is was an invite to chat with and come to her table. A smooth move next time would ask her to come over to the bar and buy her a drink. Get her away from the other perve men. Goodluck man!

Unfortunately, "Let's talk later" carries just about as much weight as it did in high school when friends signed your yearbook with "Keep in touch! Friends 4EVA!" It's a facile statement that feels good but means next to nothing.

She either flaked (if she wanted to come back, she would have) or you were REALLY unapproachable during the game. I mean, if you're mad enough to stomp out, maybe you didn't look like you were in the mood to catch up. In either case, it just wasn't meant to be at that time. I don't think it was a dumb move not to say goodbye, because she said she would come back, but you may have missed an opportunity to go out with her. Then again, it doesn't sound like you wanted to date her, so no harm, no foul.
