Anyone else ever get hit with a baseball while attending a game?
 
So I was at a minor league game today. The hitter knocked the ball out, it hit the roof of the concession stand above me, bounced right off, and popped me right in the back. I could hear everyone go "Ooooh!" in shock.

...I no selled the hell out of it. :D It really and honestly didn't hurt at all. I wasn't even bruised. The speed of it slowed down, so that helped some. I laughed about it, which seem to calm the shocked crowd down, and they began to laugh too when they saw me laughing about it, and I gave them all a wave to confirm I was fine, and loudly said "Thank you".( Looking back, I should have really milked it, and stood up, and taken a bow.) Some older guy who worked there came over to see if I was alright, and I told him I was fine, and he seem relived.

......I was honestly more disturbed by the fact that all those people looked at me. :$ I've done stage and film acting before, and it seems no matter where I go, the theater gods put me at the center of attention!

Anyhow, anyone else ever become just another victim to a baseball?

did you at least get the ball?

Nope, some kid got it, and even if I did get it, I would have turned around and given him the ball.

When I was 10 years old, some guy on the oakland A's almost took my head off with a line drive . I want to say It was McGwire, but Im pretty sure he was injured at the time.
