I suppose we should be thankful that homespun characters much like the Dawg can still afford to attend MLB games, what by means of spiraling ticket prices, seat licensing as well corporate douchebaggery squeezing out typical fan. But Dawg quite literally went over the line on Sunday, now some in San Francisco tend to be wondering if he must be banned from games most of the time.
Here's the story: Sixth inning, one out, Giants up 5-0 with the visiting Braves. Marco Stutaro sends some drive to left of which Braves' outfielder Justin Upton tries to trace, jumping to the the surface of the wall. It looks like Upton may have time to catch it, but a fan reaches down over the railing and deflects the ball in reference to his glove.
Scutaro winds standing on second with a 2 bottle, where he hangs out for awhile while umpires check the replay. If they will rule interference, Scutaro might called out.
But no, after checking it, the umpires designation Scutaro the double — taking over, I suppose, that Upton may not have caught the tennis ball anyway. The Giants triumphed in, 5-1.
The fan, still, is ejected by security. He wasn't hard to obtain — The Dawg is a huge fixture at Giants games for at the least three decades, attending just about every home game stretching back in Candlestick Park days. He always dresses the same (see below), and considers himself the mayor for the left field bleachers. And knowing what it's like available, I can tell you that's pretty much like being the mayor of St. Louis after the alien war in Defiance. Here's Dawg, ahead of he was ejected, asking his case.
Who is a Dawg? Loveable bleacher personality, or scruffy, pot-smoking instigator? Down at the MLB. com message plank, some people check in who claim to have encountered him up tight. Apparently he's been kicked out of no less than one other game. Especially love the pioneer comment.
creamofwheat22 Posts: 1582 Dawg is often a scumbag. I sat in their section last season and amongst every inning, he would stand up along the railing and pose like he's any recordings big shot. Fans would come up to him and make an attempt to shake his hand, get an autograph or have got a picture taken with him or her. He'd would blow them off and advise them "not right now". Then following on from the game, he was hanging beyond your stadium smoking weed facing a bunch of young people.
Marichal27Fan Posts: 128 A couple offenses already, early in the season would enable it to be imperative for the brass to have a serious discussion with him. … The DAWG seems like he got lost causing a Moby Grape conjunction in 1967 and came up in ATT's LF part.
viper6 Posts: 8713 Dawg can be described as stupid asshat,, who stays stoned for hours on end,, I saw him with the park outside taking a good leak on side of a building,, …lol
This most current episode should cement this legacy. I can just see it, years from now, when they unveil his statue outside the stadium. It will be a bronze likeness of This Dawg, showing him choosing a leak with one side, holding a joint with the other. Gather 'round with regard to pictures, kids.
