Stay away from them, not worth any kind of time.
Wait' exactly how do I get in on that. I've been on fb a long time, and haven't seen any money from them.

You probably have to apply to their sponsor program and have a certain number of followers, engagements etc.

"Phillies Karen" sure looks a lot like Elizabeth Warren from the front.

Default idiots on the internet

Very unfortunate for the misidentified woman, and typical of mob mentality
on social media. I'll point out that the idiots aren't limited to social media in
this case, as the behavior of both adults was absurd (the dad who invaded the
space of other fans and the woman who felt the need to act like he just stole
her kidney). People are just lovely!

Question

What did whoever not do? And was it done at all by anybody?



P.S. And is Elizabeth Warren a Phillies fan now? I thought she was a lifelong Reds fan.

The video shows the ball landing in the concrete below the seats in front of her row. I don't believe there is a zone of control when you buy a ticket for a seat other than that seat and where you put your feet. She never touched it and the unwritten rule on any ball in the stands is whomever grabs it, keeps it. There was no one seated in that row. He had every right to go over and take it.

Michael B-

If you don't find the guy's behavior tacky, I can't help you. He scurried like a
rat to a location he clearly didn't inhabit. His behavior was like that of a child.
There's no "law" against it, you know there is no "zone of control"- it was
just in poor taste (and obviously so), like cutting in a line. The woman's
behavior was also gross. It's wonderful microcosm of the horrible and
ridiculous behavior I see more and more among adults.

Photoshop or AI on that. Glasses are different and no two-tone hair. Trolling as trolls do.
