Anybody know if you're allowed to bring brooms to Nats Stadium?

Took pleasure in calling him and idiot when he dropped that routine fly ball!

Woohoo! Going to Sunday's game. Chen vs. Strasburg, with a free t-shirt and kids run the bases for the little one.


Maybe you want to call Harper an "idiot" to his face?  Nah, I guess its easier to rip a 19 year old rookie playing his first games in the majors on an internet board.


Arod's sluggging % through his first 17 games (54 at bats) when he came up was .241 and his batting average was .204.

Heckling Bryce Harper?

Went to the game on Saturday, was so bummed they allower 6 runs, it was exciting to see them come back and score 5. I thought it was happening all over again on Sunday, but it was glorious to see them bounce back from back to back losses with 9 runs. 4 homers I think? Wish I had gone Sunday. Still tons of fun!

My beef is with fans doing this at DC sporting events...Skins games, Caps games...do these morons have any idea that it's 'O' as in Orioles?  Take that shit up 95 to Baltimore.

As far as desecrating the song, or it being unpatriotic...I think that's pretty stupid.  But it doesn't surprise me that there are plenty of idiots who would find it offensive on that level.

Was just going to post the same thing.  People need to stop getting pissed off about this.  I've been saying it since I was little and it's merely an emphasis of one part of the anthem.  People embellishing the crap out of it while singing are more offensive.

it's hardly just a few people that do this...a good percentage of DC sports fans participate in this...not because they are drunken yahoos as best I can tell.  They're just too dense to know that it's and Orioles thing.

I just assumed it happened at Nats games when the O's where in town.  Much like how us O's fans have to deal with yankee and red sox chants at camden yards when they are in town

didn't realize it happened during unrelated sports

Yes..can be heard at Verizon Center and FedEx.
At Verizon they yell "Red!" as well...as in rock the red.
