People that steal baseballs from children.

Anyone had the amazing experience of this happening to them when they were little?Once I was at a minor league game and some douchebag thought it was okay to pick the ball up when I dropped it walking back to my seat. My dad got it back for me though. Along with everyone else around threatening him.

Another time, me and my friend were about to catch a foul ball when this guy runs up and sticks his hands under ours in hopes that we would drop it.

I don't get why people do this. I love when they get displayed on national TV aha.

Satans Spawn in her final form. I bet she steal balloons from children at Disneyland.

meh that girl never had it, i say good for the lady. if the kid actually has the ball and someone yanks it out of their hands, yeah thats mean, but fuck letting the kid have it if you can catch it.
 
I sat behind the dug out at a Jays game and got them to toss me 4 balls throughout the game.

I mean the fight for the ball is survival of the fittest, time to beef up little girl.
 
Gonna play the devils advocate her and say that when a ball is hit your way, its fucking tunnel vision on that shit by pure instinct. I'd put my life out to catch a fucking foul ball and the person next to me is the least of my worries at that moment.

If you notice its a kid, afterwards maybe give it to em depending on how little of a shit they've been all game, but they woulda got their ass beamed in the firstplace if you let it past
 
Had a tshirt stolen out of my lap from one of the cannons from some old fat guy when I was like 7. There was no way that shirt was gonna fit him either.
 
Not the same as what you meant op but at the place I used to go to daycare at the neighbors were assholes and always took our baseballs and shit, and my Boomerang if it went over the fence. There kids would even play with it sometimes.

If the apocalypse happens I'm taking my shit back and burning down their house
 
Some asshole tried to steal a ball that hit me during a game when I was like 11. I've never seen a bunch of lowclass dirtbags turn on their than when that man tried to steal my ball.
 
my dad grew up in Long Island and apparently at a hockey game a guy stole a puck right out of a kids hands, so the entire stadium started chanting "give it to the kid, give it to the kid" and for a while it was a tradition to chant that every time an adult caught something regardless of if he had snagged it from a kid or not.
 
Was at a minor league game when I was really little, probably 7. They had t shirt cannons and I strategically planned out where to stand. I was literally all alone and jumping up and down and the dude saw me, and aimed. As he shot the thing probably 6 kids charged at me, I caught it and then this kid grabbed it but no way in hell I was letting go so we played tug of war even though I caught it first then this douche bag 16 year old pulled the kid off me and yanked it outta my hands. I ran up to the top of the stands and cried haha I wanted that stupid shirt so bad.

Then on the way out my mom met one of her friends that worked for the team or something and told him the story and he went and got me a shirt and a baseball used in a game. Haha I was so stoked on getting that ball I forgot all about the shirt incident even though it was just a shitty old ball used by a minor league team that wasn't even that good.

 
there is way too much of an obsession with getting a baseball.

people think it is their God given right as ticket holders to get a baseball.

once you pass 18 years old, you shouldn't be asking for autographs or baseballs during a game. And if you happen to catch one, give it to a kid.

let's be honest, any adult that catches one will probably forget it and leave it on his car floor, while a kid will cherish that thing as being his supreme baseball memory for the rest of his life.
 
you guys are making me feel like shit. I was at a hockey game and caught a puck once. fair and square. everyone was bracing for impact and I just caught it. but I was sitting next to this mentally handicapped guy that was keeping notes the whole game and he was obviously really into the team. I should have given him the puck.
 
Yeah trying to hit a small ball going around 90-100 mph is stupid and fucking lazy. Good to know you are athletic enough to put down a sport you are probably shit at.
 
Oh, really? All those baseball fans that I was referring to have to do that? Way to comprehend my post, you fucktard.
 
When I was little, I got a t-shirt from the air cannon ripped out of my hands by a fat dude that never even stood up. The shitty part is I called for it from the upper deck and the mascot fired it right to me, fuck that fat guy.
 
A friend of mine took me to a minor league game when i was about 12. The first pop fly over towards our section and some disgustingly obese man dives ontop of me in attempt to catch it, crushing my small frame into my box set. needless to say i was heated and baseballess.
 
one time when i was around 14 my friend and i ended up at the same game with our fathers, there was a foul ball and we were pretty close to the field on the 3rd base side and they were a little farther up but on the same side. it goes behind us and i track it and i see my friend square up under it to catch it then this guy just completely smothers him and steals the ball. after a second i noticed it was his dad but obviously no one else would have known so pretty much all of Fenway was booing him, it was pretty funny. he didn't think his son was going to catch it so he went after it
 
Once when i was 7 i was at some minor league game and a foul ball got hit towards me and i was about to catch it and some douche bag pushed my head into the hand rail in the middle of the aisle. He didnt even say anything just left me on the ground and ran away with the ball.
 
Back in the fall I was a a movie premier and a Nordica hat landed on this chicks foot and I grabbed it before she could. Fair game at that point, but grabbing shit out of other people's hands is not cool. That chick was pissed tho..
 
Couldn't agree with you more. When I was a kid thats all I wanted. Wore my glove the entire game.

I got a homerun ball last season not by shoving anyone out of the way or tackiling anyone like some of the people around me but I came out of the pile with the ball. The ball was headed right at my seat. I heard a kid a few rows back say something like "We might get another one right?"

Then I realized all I was gonna do when I got home was throw the ball in the closet and forget about it so I gave it to the kid. His dad bought me a beer.
