Here's about the best case of camera-hog karma that you're ever going to see.
The situation: A fan at Fenway catches a foul ball and then does the prerequisite wave to the crowd before starting to bask in the cheers from those around him. No problems there, especially since there weren't any kids sitting around him that he could have given the ball to (a BLS requirement if you're a clearly grown male.)
However, let's see what happens when this guy overstays his welcome in the foul-catching spotlight about 10 Mississippis too long ...
UPDATE: Sorry folks, it was funny while it lasted.
Yup, I think I'll be laughing for the rest of the day at that guy throwing both hands over his head and looking forlornly over the railing. Another BLS foul ball rule is that anyone over 16 shouldn't bring a glove to a game, though if this is going to be the result, I think we can make an exception.
A big BLS head nod to Fanhouse for the tip.
