Many years back, my wife and her friend volunteered to be a candy-throwers in a parade here in town. Then they learned that their float was being pulled by a sponsor's truck - the sponsor being a local septic tank company. So, what candy did they throw? You guessed it: Baby Ruth bars.
Can't do that at the UF Homecoming parade anymore. Parents can't be expected to look after their kids.
I e seen it close to the same for a couple decades. The portal is the only big do from my point of view and it really sucks.
Filming from the stands is right there with what the Astros did. This isn’t stealing signs from second base which is expected.
I just saw the Netflix documentary "Sign Stealer" which is about Conner Stalions stealing signs for Meatchicken. Very good. https://www.netflix.com/title/81757014
I haven't followed this story much, but how does one steal signs that are made public??? If you can decipher the code, that's not really stealing, in my book. Now if McChiken is breaking into offices and stealing signs, then that's a criminal act, but I don't believe that's what they did.
