Portrait of Stupidity



Nothing personal against the pictured fan, but you have to be a real IDIOT to throw back a home run ball hit by an opponent. Okay, it was a quaint little thing started by Cubs fans in the friendly confines of Wrigley Field (definitely not friendly if you are the opponent), and unfortunately, has spread throughout baseball.

It's a thrill to get a ball at a game, whether it be a foul ball or a home run. You just caught a home run by a major league baseball player, possibly a star, and your first inclination is to throw it back.

Yup, idiot is the word.
