This Is Why You Need To Pay Attention When Attending Baseball Games

Here we have baseball fan Travis Decker, who was taking in a lovely night at the ballpark at Petco Field in San Diego as the Padres took on the Cincinnati Reds. Why, might you ask, am I telling you about him? Safety, friends. He was facemashing, or social webing, or tweetbooking, or whatever you rascals call it these days, when a long, Will Venable foul ball smacked him right in the collarbone.

He reacted as any human who was struck by a hard object while not paying attention would: “OW-WHAT-THE-FUCK-OW-OW-OW.” Lucikly he had a cold beverage, which he promptly used to reduce the swelling.

So, remember, avoid your Facebook machines and keep your intelligent phone servicing device inside your pocket during ball games.

But seriously, how has this not happened to more people?
