It is well known by, I thought, every baseball fan that you don't take the ball from kids and it is, within reason, every adult for himself. Jumping on this dad is, honestly, one of the more ludicrous positions I have read on this forum. And we have Pete Rose fans here!

I think unless someone catches a ball hit into the stands in the air, the rights to all balls should be determined by the use of instant replay. Prior to entering the stadium for a game, all fans should have to perform feats of strength much like we all do on Festivus. The weak and frail could then be given special shirts to wear moving them up the entitlement list for all balls hit into the stands. Why not give each person entering a section a survey that asks them to list in detail all the disappointments they've suffered during their lifetime, then much like how American Idol picks their winners the fans with the best hard luck stories could be awarded any balls not caught in the air.
