I was not born at the time either, if fact this was well before I was born. But it is one of my favorite baseball moments.

It was a father and his 11-year old son. He was arrested, convicted and only fined $60 for the incident. It was some dumb reason about his wife in some facility or something.

Anyway, one of my favorite plays in baseball history. I have been dying to find a signed photo of the first picture in the article. I have been unsuccessful so far haha.

This happened way before I was born and I never heard of it before. It’s really amazing that people would actually try to go on the field just to burn our flag and I dont care what their reasoning was. I’m very proud that the crowd sang God Bless America afterward, and I hope these two were arrested and did some jail time. If you dont love your country than get out and go live somewhere else! God Bless America!

Anyone who dares or try to burn the flag is not an American.
