JokersWild24 Posted April 13, 2015 Share Posted April 13, 2015 Video on ESPN shows a Mets fan tossing a beer on a Phillies outfielder as he chases down a ball. How should he be punished and what's the worst thing like that you've seen at a professional game? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colonels_Wear_Blue Posted April 13, 2015 Share Posted April 13, 2015 Not saying it's not wrong...but this was part of the game of baseball in the first half of the 20th century. That being said, I've got no beef with the Phillies banning the guy from their stadium for life (as if that could really be enforced, anyway).

Big Slick Posted April 14, 2015 Share Posted April 14, 2015 Kick him out. At least put his name in computer so he can't buy directly from team or stadium. Could they have cops give him a ticket for littering? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could they have cops give him a ticket for littering? Is it littering when dumping liquid out? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sweet16 Posted April 14, 2015 Share Posted April 14, 2015 He bought a ticket he should be able to do anything he wants at a game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CincySportsFan Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 Serious question here...if someone was to do that to another person on the street, what charges could they face? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swamprat Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 Beer? They're complaining about beer? I predict a rain of batteries on the Met outfield the next time NY is in Philly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sweet16 Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 Beer is too expensive at games to be throwing it on players Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JokersWild24 Posted April 15, 2015 Author Share Posted April 15, 2015 Serious question here...if someone was to do that to another person on the street, what charges could they face? Maybe assault or harassment, depending on the circumstances. Biggest issue here is that a ticket is kind of like a contract to abide by the stadium's rules and not interfere with play... which throwing a beer on a player would clearly be.
