Wednesday night at the Astros game a little kid, a boy about 9. was throwing popcorn at the grounds crew as they waited for an inning break. I saw him throw it. I told him to stop throwing it. He said "I didn't throw anything." Then I gave him the point to my eyes, point at him, I'm watching you. Then he ran up to where his dad was sitting to snitch on me.So dad came down to complain. The security guard told dad to keep his kid in his own seat, and if he throws anything else they'd all be thrown out of the park.It's one thing to have fun at the old ball game. But don't throw anything at people. 4951
That RIGHT THERE is the biggest problem. Stop defending your kids - they aren't always behaving!!! If my kid was doing that, I would be jumping on HIM, not everyone else. 4951

We've had kids throwing bags at players, throwing gum and popcorn at people, throwing sunflower seeds at us. Players often throw things at the 3rd base coach, so sometimes it's the kids mimicking the players. 4951
