Originally posted by fuball7 View Posti was extremely disappointed with something on Saturday. The bathrooms connected to the unopened concession stand right behind our dugout was playing music. Within the 30-45 seconds I was in there, there were about 4-5 F bombs and other profanities in the song. How do you have that type of music playing in a family environment. My 4 year old daughter was in the women's bathroom and is obviously very impressionable with words.

First, you couldn't have fun with visiting center fielders.
Then your kids had to be as active as your average AARP member if they don't want to get scolded.
Next, despite the fact great baseball teams didn't have a batter's eye the game has to stop if someone is standing in front of the current one.
Finally, if you choose to spend money at the game to buy an overpriced adult beverage don't think about walking out to your seats in the outfield.
There is more.... but you get the point.
Stop ruining what made this the place to be if you want crowds to return.

And no heckling the opposing team's center fielder? That is the topper of all toppers. I knew there is no crying in baseball but no heckling? WTF

WSU baseball needs to rebuild its fan base. Improving the product will help, and maybe that will occur this year, finally; one can only hope. But improving the fan experience is another good idea, whether it's by making it cheaper to attend -- it can't cost that much more to put on a game for 6000 than for 2500, so why not, considering that 6000 cheaper tickets probably generate more revenue that 2500 more expensive ones, which is the whole behind putting things on sale -- or by giving the fans more flexibility once they do show up. I can understand beer restrictions if there's some sort of legal issue (and in Kansas, when ISN'T there some sort of legal issue associated with beer or alcohol?) But some of this stuff is just bureaucratic, officious foolishness that needs to be rooted out ASAP.

Originally posted by Cdizzle View PostIn my (limited) experience in the outfield, it seemed like the opposing outfielders knew what they were in for. Some would even have a little fun with it. Now I never sat out there for a Creighton game, and there should certainly be a line, but I don't get this move.
Does anybody else remember Mike Jones from ASU (I think)? He came out after a few innings and had his back-up bring us a signed ball.
I swear the safe space police got their start on the hill!
