Flopped Trips Fall Short in Ring Game

And the poker saga continues with a late night rendezvous at a $.5/1 Ring Game. On a site filled with a numerous amount of fish, awful players who tend to donate their money, I run into a little bad luck with a hard-to-lay-down hand. Before I busted on this hand, I must have sat for a good 45 minutes just tossing in my blinds to those who don't deserve it. Here's what happened:

23:07:55Dealing 1 board card: 6C

snowball wins ($179.74 main pot) with a full house, Jacks full of eights

With a limp in 3rd position, at no point during the hand did I put him on pocket jacks. I was hoping he had AJ with top 2 pair, especially with a loose site as a whole.
Note-t0-self: Take notes on all players over a long period of time.
