The kid got an autographed ball after this and the woman got five minutes of booing from the crowd.

[–]Siege17 1231 points1232 points1233 points 1 month ago
She deserves more than five minutes of booing.
A crowd of four maybe five people should follow her around for a year and be constantly booing her.

We should set up a donation site online, and hire 4 or 5 homeless people, pay them a yearly salary with the donations and have them boo and harass her constantly until she has a mental break down. Start it up again once she recovers from said break down.

Says they sent a ball, doesn't show booing. I've seen a few people say she got booed but I'm thinking it's wishful thinking more than anything.

Have you ever been to a baseball game? You get booed if you don't throw the away teams ball back. I'm sure she got booed. She better have, bitch.

Even with that ending, it still makes me sad to see how awful people can be.
[–]leap2 312 points313 points314 points 1 month ago
I think what makes it worse is the high five she gives and receives just afterwards.
[–]francohab 82 points83 points84 points 1 month ago
Exactly. I mean, she could have been caught in the moment, and took the ball without realizing it was from a kid's hands. But she must have realized afterwards, and the high five is really what makes her a fucking bitch.
[–]Yetanothertroll 41 points42 points43 points 1 month ago
She knew it was from a kids hands, people like that wouldn't dare try to take it from an adult because the adult is too likely to beat the shit out of them and shove them over the railing.
[–]floreal999 107 points108 points109 points 1 month ago*
I'd like to high five her. Puts glasses on. In the face. Yeeeeahhhhhh

I did this once, by accident, at a football game when they were throwing little foam footballs into the stands. I didn't actually rip it out of the kids hands, it was just my reactions I snatched it out of the air right in front of him. I immediately felt bad, and gave it to him. The look of joy on the boy's face... I would have regretted it for days had I not given it to him.
[–]strawbhurry 80 points81 points82 points 1 month ago
I can totally understand being caught up in the moment and reacting like that, but then you did the right thing and realised what you did and gave it back, which was good.
[–]thetruegmon 50 points51 points52 points 1 month ago
Exactly, even the bitch in the video getting caught up in the moment is understandable. But instead of regretting it afterwards...she high fives her friends? So sad.
[–]Hlaskios 57 points58 points59 points 1 month ago
One time I was absolutely hammered at an NHL game and they were throwing T-shirts down into the lower levels. They threw it right to me and I was easily the tallest person in the crowd, especially with my arms extended, that it landed right in my hand. I turned around and my drunk buddies were all high-fiving and stuff and I saw the little kid sitting right in front of me who had NO chance at all of catching a T-shirt.
I gave him the T-shirt and his dad thanked me a whole mess of times. I like to think that that happens a lot more often than the stunt that this cunt pulled.
[–]drivebyjustin 22 points23 points24 points 1 month ago
I'd like to be the tallest person in a crowd sometime. That sounds great. BRB booking trip to North Korea.

[–]Dax_Mikael_Inting 472 points473 points474 points 1 month ago*
When I was a kid, my dad took me to see Ice hockey a lot. After a match if they won, they would throw their sticks and some threw their shirts. Anyway I always stood there every match and ended up catching a stick. Super big adrenalin rush, I still remember it. :D
And then some old guy just came and ripped it out of my hands... and no one interfered.
edit: Typos.
[–]mirthless_smirk 184 points185 points186 points 1 month ago
Not even your dad?
[–]Dax_Mikael_Inting 199 points200 points201 points 1 month ago
He was not close by. I always went down closer to the edge in the middle to try and catch stuff, while he would stay with his buddies. I also kind of never told him stuff like that.
[–]mirthless_smirk 162 points163 points164 points 1 month ago
Too bad. If it makes you feel better the old guy got a splinter ripping the stick out of your hands which never fully healed... or so wishful thinking says
[–][deleted] 126 points127 points128 points 1 month ago
The splinter got infected and his finger began to rot...
[–]HeavenSk8 330 points331 points332 points 1 month ago

Something similar to the skater Mike Vallely (does a lot of techy stuff, i think he was in the tony hawk games idk), but instead he punched the dude in the face. I can't really tell from the video whether Mike V's daughter really "had" the stick or not though. Source: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-68ToW1UFlw

I think the Hockey player specifically pointed at the little girl when tossing the stick over. Now did Mike start throwing punches a little to fast? I think so.
[–]Big_Green_Piccolo 53 points54 points55 points 1 month ago

When I was little, during a summer program, I went to a Soccer game in DC for the woman's league, and I remember during half time they would shoot signed shirts out of the shirt-cannons. I was lucky enough to catch a shirt, but just like this lady, one of the adult chaperons grabbed it out of my hands. I guess the only good part was that he gave it to his son though.

Seriously...
It would be difficult catching a ball that came directly to you and not hand it off to some little kid standing next to you...
...let alone ripping it from their hands and high fiving your friends as if you just didn't prove to the world you are a terrible human being.
[–]TucoR 18 points19 points20 points 1 month ago

[–]bigbadgreg 48 points49 points50 points 1 month ago
Watching the little girl and presumably her brother walk back up the stairs was one of the saddest things I've seen in a while. I hate watching kids be disappointed; especially when it's on account of grown-ups who should act like grown-ups.
[–]shadybrainfarm 4 points5 points6 points 1 month ago
It's such bullshit. I mean, really, what is an adult going to do with a foul ball? It's not THAT exciting. But it is for kids! I never go out of my way to catch baseballs at games, I mean, yeah if it comes right to me I'll try to catch it, but there's always hopeful little kids around and it makes their fucking day when they get one. Leave it for the people for whom it actually matters and is fun.

[–]robinr22 141 points142 points143 points 1 month ago
I actually thought this was the perfect example of why doing good things leads to good things. The older kid didn't do anything wrong and the younger kid was being a little bit bratty but the older kid still decided to give him the ball, despite obviously being very happy that he had it.
If he'd kept the ball, he'd have just had a ball. Instead he gets loads of cool stuff, praised on TV and got to meet his favourite ball players which is waaaaaay more fun that just keeping a ball.
Also people working in baseball are really nice.
[–]Joon01 101 points102 points103 points 1 month ago
The little kid, Nicholas, wasn't really being bratty. Maybe you missed it, but he actually had the ball first and dropped it. One of the players picked it up and tossed it to the older kid, Ian. So Nicholas was bummed because he lost his ball and saw it get handed to another kid.
[–]robinr22 13 points14 points15 points 1 month ago
Not hugely bratty. Just being a normal kid who wanted something and didn't get it.
[–]tivo17 7 points8 points9 points 1 month ago
Nicholas failed to catch the ball, it bounced off his glove. Sucks but the kid was a little bit bratty. The older kid did the mom a favor.
[–]That_Honest_Redditor 51 points52 points53 points 1 month ago
I don't know. When I went to spring training in Florida to watch a game, I gave an elderly woman my seat since I was the closest one to the exit.
She got hit in the eye with a foul ball.

[–]ScaredKitty 34 points35 points36 points 1 month ago
When you're having a tantrum as a kid it's hard to come out of it quickly, he was probably a bit confused and still feeling sorry for himself.
[–]Jill4ChrisRed 11 points12 points13 points 1 month ago
probably because he was still upset that he didn't get it by himself. I'm 100% sure he's very, very thankful about it now :)

Was at a minor league baseball game a couple years back. We were drunk and giving the left fielder hell. Between innings the mascot drove by on a golf cart throwing balls in the stands. I watched this full grown adult snatch a ball out of an autistic boy's hands very similar to this gif. I went directly over to security and told them what happened. They asked the lady to give the boy the ball, she declined. Security then asked the boy if she had snatched the ball from him and he said yes. They immediately escorted her out as people in the section boo'ed her on her way out. After this, my friends' and I were determined to get the boy another ball, so instead of heckling the left fielder the next inning we yelled the story of what had happened to him (we were in the first row behind the left field wall. Keep in mind that the left fielder was playing in a professional baseball game and never acknowledged our existence, we didn't even think he could hear us). At the beginning of the last inning when he ran out onto the field to warm up, he brought us a ball signed by every player on the team that was in the dugout and asked to throw it to the boy personally. One of the best nights of my life.

For non-Americans who don't understand the context, this happened at a baseball game, where fans like to catch balls that fly over the fence (known as home runs and foul balls) and take them home at souvenirs. Kids often sit for hours with their baseball mitts hoping to catch a ball, but you can attend a lot of games over many years without ever getting near anything.
[–]etc0x 131 points132 points133 points 1 month ago
You also might want to include the fact that this wasn't a home run OR a foul ball. The man deliberately tossed the ball to the little girl.
[–]girlheartsfett 97 points98 points99 points 1 month ago
He tossed it to her? Oh man, that adds on another level of disgusting. I don't watch baseball but I tell you what, if I was in the crowd and saw that shit I'd punt that cunt right off the balcony and not even care I got kicked out. What a bitch!

[–]gaseouscloud 36 points37 points38 points 1 month ago
True story - when I lived in Boston I went to a few games. I had no idea what was going on, all I knew was that there was beer and hotdogs available (and a great micro-brewery bar thing over the road). We ended up in the bleachers (I think that is what they called it?). Anyhow - this ball comes flying over, rattles around some of the seats and lands near me. The stand wasn't particularly full, I wasn't really paying attention but just enough to saunter over, pick up the ball and throw it back. Because this is what we do in England. I've never seen so many open mouths.

This is how everybody felt :) "Aww, it's okay, he/she just doesn't know any better."
[–]tomdarch 23 points24 points25 points 1 month ago
Exactly. It's hard to explain - catching a ball like that isn't a "big honor", the ball isn't really valuable if it came from a normal season game. There is something almost "magical" about the amount of luck/chance that goes into catching a ball like that.
If the girl had messed up the catch and the ball had fallen back onto the field, she probably wouldn't have felt too bad. Disappointed, but it wouldn't have been a traumatic experience for most kids.
An adult who "steals candy from babies" is a pretty low scumbag, but something about this situation - pulling a ball out of the hands of a child at a baseball game - makes this particularly appalling.
Also, the woman who took the ball appears to be sitting in "good seats" - expensive tickets. That aspect just adds to how repulsive this situation was.
[–]rayyychul 49 points50 points51 points 1 month ago
And if you're like that lady, you will be booed until you give up that ball. You don't need that ball. You're a grown-ass person who can buy their own ball.
[–]Jonny_Watts 67 points68 points69 points 1 month ago
It's not "buying their own ball" that's the issue. Anyone can buy a ball for Christ's sake. It's the glory of having a true major league foul ball. And it's just taken away.
[–]EndersBuggers 78 points79 points80 points 1 month ago
What I don't understand is why adults can't catch a true major league foul ball and keep it. I'm not talking about this where the lady straight snatches it out of a kid's hands, but more like when an adult catches it right next to a kid and gets deathglared until he hands it over. Maybe the adult never got his childhoor memory of catching a foul ball. Just because he's older doesn't mean we need to discriminate against him with foul balls!!!
Also I've never caught a foul ball :(
[–]Jonny_Watts 22 points23 points24 points 1 month ago
If the adult catches the ball, they should and will keep it. On the other hand, look up some guy named dodgerfilms. He gets like thousands of home run balls, mostly BP. He hands almost all of them out.
[–]hey_its_katie 19 points20 points21 points 1 month ago
Exactly! This particular case she literally does rip it out of the girl's hands, which isn't acceptable to do to an adult much less a kid. But the other one at the Yankees game where the kid (and his parents) are two seats away from catching the ball but everyone expects the guy to give it to him just because the kid is wailing his ass off? The kid looked two, he's never going to remember getting the ball and would forget about it in .2 seconds. He just wants it because oh my god everyone wanted it so it must be something amazing and he didn't get it. The guy, on the other hand, might actually care about the ball after the game.
[–]girlheartsfett 10 points11 points12 points 1 month ago
I really, really hope you don't get down-voted to oblivion for posting this in a thread. That link was like someone smacking the Reddit wasp's nest with a stick, but I completely agree with you on this. While I'm not a baseball fan I could understand the excitement of getting a special souvenir from a game no matter the age. Of course, catching the ball would probably be enough of a satisfaction for me, afterwards if I saw a kid next to me I'd totally hand over my ball because it would be a win-win situation, the child gets a neat souvenir and a kind gesture from a stranger and I'd get the satisfaction and good memory of something as well. I could NEVER have just stood by and not punched that lady in the cunt for what she did to that poor child. Have to remember not everyone in this world can think outside of themselves and that's sad. I hope you catch a ball someday!
[–]WhyLisaWhy 8 points9 points10 points 1 month ago
I've never caught one either. I always remember if I do catch one some day to look around and give it to the kid nearby me. It's way more important to them than it is for grown adults. It's just a stupid foul ball after all. But if no kids are nearby IT'S MINE!
[–]Skanh 16 points17 points18 points 1 month ago

[–]Nickyjtjr 5 points6 points7 points 1 month ago
That goes against the oldest etiquette of baseball. When you catch a foul, you give it to the nearest kid. I remember getting one from a stranger when I was a young kid at a giants game. And I've seen it done several times since then. This is part of why baseball games are so magical as a young child. This lady sucks and doesn't get it.
[–]butterflypoon 33 points34 points35 points 1 month ago
I agree this is wtf, but I've seen people who legitimately caught the ball get shit for not giving it to a nearby child. That's bullshit.

[–]Butter_Contest 4 points5 points6 points 1 month ago
You now have the choice to make a kid's day or ruin it, in front of a huge audience. One will make you look like a boss; the other will make you look like a fucking cunt.
This is how you know she's a person with no shame. Grabbing the ball initially is kind of understandable, but keeping it.. come on.
[–]jeoncs 5 points6 points7 points 1 month ago
Reddit should start a fund for the kid to get to take a trip to throw a baseball at that cunt's face
[–]melthornal 44 points45 points46 points 1 month ago*
I don't know about other sports, but doing this at a baseball game = you lose. Baseball takes this seriously. You will get boed. You will get harassed. It won't stop for longer than you would expect. You will be on national tv. You will be talked about on the radio. There will be YouTube videos, and your douchy face will be mocked. Every single time. I don't get why people do it.
From a Yankee Ranger game this season, got talked about all over: http://www.ebaumsworld.com/video/watch/82486120/
[–]MoppingUpYourSalt 77 points78 points79 points 1 month ago
Waaaaay different. That kid was nowhere close to the ball in the first place.
The lady in your video chose not to be a saint, she passed on the opportunity to make a kids day. You could argue thats a shitty thing to do, you could argue that its not. Mostly, the kid is just acting like a spoiled brat.
Lady in the OP straight up ripped the ball out of the little girls hands after she MISSED IT HERSELF. The world would straight up be better off without these people.
[–]Lowbacca1977 111 points112 points113 points 1 month ago
But on that one, at least from what I can see... the announcer is way out of line. It's ridiculous to expect people to give stuff up because there's kids around. Not to say it isn't great when people do.... but it looks like that couple caught the ball fair and square.
[–]Manwichs 42 points43 points44 points 1 month ago
fuck this, why should kids get all the balls?
[–]YouGotDoddified 6 points7 points8 points 1 month ago
Right, so the kid missed the ball/was nowhere near it, and the woman got the ball fair and square.
Giving the ball to the kid afterwards when it was bawling it's eyes out would probably serve as reinforcement towards 'if I scream really loud, people do things for me'
This can't be compared to the video's scenario above.

[–]im_a_dbag 22 points23 points24 points 1 month ago
Thanks for the original post, because I am deeply concerned about reposts, especially those from a year ago.
[–]I_RARELY_RAPE_PEOPLE 5 points6 points7 points 1 month ago
Hm....so it was posted a year ago. Millions of people didn't see this that one 12 hour period it was popular enough to be seen on reddit's front pages. And then for the next year while it hid under billions of other submissions, people still didn't see it. And now a year later it's been reposted.
But because you saw it, it should never be seen again by anyone ever.
Sound logic Maxmax

[–]Mansyn 2 points3 points4 points 1 month ago
This is so not surprising, but I'm glad it was spotlighted. When I was younger we were sitting in the outfield of the Astrodome, Mark McGwire was nailing the ever-loving crap out of some balls during practice before a game. One ball came right at us, dented a metal seat in the row right behind us (there wasn't anyone close, it was way before the game). Some guy jumped several rows of seats and ran up to punch my dad right in the ear to knock the ball out of his hand.
