The mockery you're making of somebody freaking out about a hot dog promotion is exactly my point. People bring baseball gloves and are always alert during an inning for fear of getting hit with a bat or balll. Nobody expects to get hurt during a hot dog promotion, so why do you keep putting this ridiculous idea into people's heads that people should be paying close attention to a hot dog promotion so as not to get hurt? How about not doing the promotion at all -- is that going to change the outcome of the game?
What are some of the Royals' duty of care? How about insuring that hot dogs are wrapped in something that can't hurt anyone? How about instructing the mascot to lob hot dogs? How about instructing your mascot to lob it to someone who's paying attention, instead of carelessly flipping it behind your back?

What should they wrap a hotdog in? It's already in a ****ing bun. Should it be wrapped inside something softer than a bun? Something less dangerous than white bread?
It isn't "clearly dangerous" just because someone got hurt. It took a freak accident by an idiot to get hurt. It's possible to get hurt by any number of things if you're the person who is both dumb enough and unlucky enough to find yourself hurt in a hotdog toss at a baseball game. The possibility that something could hurt someone isn't enough that a reasonable person should anticipate it happening.
