ALStripes17 Posted August 3, 2016 Report Share Posted August 3, 2016 No reason Davidson should have to be involved in that. Stadium staff can't do something before or as it gets to that point? Although I do like the precedent. Sent from my XT1254 using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What gets me is all of the posts I read that this fan paid his money so he should be allowed to act like that? WRONG. Nowhere on that ticket does it say you can act in a vulgar manner around other fans. It's cool how the surrounding fans applauded. Can't remember who it was that ejected a belligerent fan who was dogging Bryce Harper. It was a well warranted ejection. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
