Foul Ball Etiquette

**RoXer** · 02-02-2012, 10:38 PM

I mean, it's soccer. The only thing comparable to a foul ball would be a stray hockey puck I suppose. Almost everything else in every other sport they make you give back. So we're talking about "giveaways" or "prizes" now and not actual memorabilia from the game.

So like when they shoot out shirts from the shirt gun then yeah it's ok to stand up and maybe even put up a hand or two to show you're enthusiasm for wanting the shirt. You could even yell out "woo" or something if you really want to get crazy with it. But when they throw it, try to maintain yourself. Don't make much of an effort for it unless it's at you or the 4 seats around you. Otherwise you're fighting over a shirt.

Any "giveaways" they hand out at not baseball games are meaningless compared to a foul ball. And what I'm saying is foul balls really aren't that meaningful once you're over 18.

So just keep your composure when they're handing that shit out and you'll be fine.
