In the main, I think people get a little too worked up about sports and (NASCAR) non-sports. They get all tanked up on liquor, smack and nitrates and the next thing you know, they think they are Wilt Chamberlain or Babe Ruth or whatever and they are harshing (evidently) everyone elses mellow.

I feel you are saying that ALLLLLLLLLLLLL sports fans partake in such deeds.. Isn't that stereotyping

When I transform into a sports figure in my haze of adrenalin and cheers. I channel Jack Lambert

There better not be any disruptions of A2A at game night.

Off duty cops taking pot shots from the stands? No thanks. Make the idiots pay with stiff fines and/or tons of hours of community service or something- give them lasting pain instead of a temporary zap.

Yeah the trigger happy cops in Portland (almost always aimed at black people) make tasers look tame.

Geez Snowy, my admiration for you just grew even bigger!!! Jack Lambert is one of my childhood idols. Sniff, sniff, the thought of him manhandling people brings a tear to my eyes. I heard he's a forest ranger now. I can see him sitting in the woods far away from people rather than destroying them.

Y'all get pretty worked up about your sports I see.

and yes, NASCAR is a sport.

There was a case a couple of years ago where an Eastern European immigrant arrived at a western Canadian airport and for some reason there was no there to greet him. After several hours of wandering around the airport, not being able to find anyone who could communicate with him, and unable to find the people who were supposed to meet him, he was becoming increasingly agitated. At some point in time airport security was called - this would be the R.C.M.P. Now, I'm just too lazy to go search CBC archives to find it, but airport video clearly showed that the officers involved made NO attempt to communicate with the man. They simply approached him and repeatedly tasered him. Not so funny, huh? What's even LESS funny is that the man died. Yup. It can happen. He had no medical conditions that complicated the mattter - tasers can actually do that at times. They can kill people. The man was NOT considered to be a threat to ANYONE. He was just upset.

Welcome to Canada......ZAP!

Okay, I say it depends on the event. There are some crazy ass fans at some events that need to be zapped!

I also think that taking away the adult beverages

is cruel and unusual punishment for those of us that like to partake in the ball park beer at $80 a pop...or whatever they are charging these days! ( I never buy) People like me are too drunk or out of shape to jump the wall and possibly break a leg trying to run in the first damn place!

(This kid was 17, and if he was drunk and doing this, he needs to be brought up on drinking under the age of 21 and whomever was buying him the beer should be tazed...er uh, I mean punished!)

Run....heh....right!

If they are just running in circles, let them run til they get dizzy! I think the heavy set cops are just pissed they couldn't catch the little bugger, so he tazed him! I did have to laugh a bit when I saw the picture in the paper this morning....what idiots...the fan and the cop! Both of them need to control themselves for crying out loud!
