I just watched that video, I would be embarrassed if it were my kid throwing a fit because he didn’t get a ball. And I would hate to have been sitting beside a guy with a kid on his lap for the whole game. You pay big bucks for a good seat and they are so small you can barely move. When there are 2 people in the seat beside you, even if one is a child, it is not comfortable. It happened to me at a basketball final. We decided to splurge and get really good seats. Guy comes in with a little kid, still in diapers and sucking on a bottle so pretty young, plops down with diaper bag, bottles etc. He was not a little man (read grossly overweight) and with a baby. It was a terrible time. The kid was bawling and the man was bouncing him, so then he spewed and almost got me, then he obviously needed a diaper change so the fumes were a bit overwhelming. I don’t think children should be allowed unless you buy them a seat.
Back to the ball game, I probably would have caved and given the kid the ball just to shut him up, wasn’t a home run ball or anything exciting.
