It's not the smartest thing to bring your kid there. But if your stadium's way of punting liability is to tell fans they have to be ready at a moment's notice to catch a 110 mph hardball screaming at your head or else it's your fault... So who's not allowed down there now? No kids. Nobody with poor coordination, probably a lot of women. No seniors. No handicapped. All phones confiscated. No scorebooks. And while we're at it, nobody should be allowed to hold a beer or nachos during a pitch. Maybe then people will just pay attention like they're supposed to.

Why do they need to be told??? Logic states that a 100mph fastball crushed into the stands on a line drive is gonna hurt like a mother ****er if it hits you.

Drink beer and chow nachos while updating your twitter feed all you want. Nothing needs to be confiscated nor do people need to go through some sort of coordination test. But if you get drilled by a baseball... it is on you. If you brought your 2 year old that CAN'T pay attention for themselves... then doubly so.
