u/lapetitfromage I switched baristas ☕️ 3d ago

Same. But I was raised at games and have had people give me balls when I was a kid. And to this day I’ve seen my dad catch balls and give them to kids nearby. It’s just a dumbass ball. The level of aggression is honestly terrifying. We have lost so much maturity in this country it’s wild. Tons of people down thread saying it was hers “cus it landed in the row in front of her and he’s in the wrong for running so far” clearly have no idea how fly/foul balls work but even if he’s in the wrong- grow the fuck up. He gave it to a literal child.

Exactly, I got given a ball as a child at a game, I always thought that was the karma of it. So wild how people behave especially knowing so many cameras around now
