I think he's referring to the students in the picture

In the bottom of the 6th a couple of plays went to review that were very close (Monty hit on the foot and Monty scoring on Whispers sac fly) plus the Schott dinger (not sure it this was reviewed or not), so does Birmingham not hate us anymore or is it just because we were playing Auburn? I don't think either play had a definitive view to conclusively overturn but I thought that in the past only to see the Aggies get screwed.
Not saying the outfielder had a shot at catching the ball but IMO the fan touched the ball before it cleared the fence. Not exactly sure what the college rule is about this but that would had almost certainly been called fan interference in MLB and hence an out.twk said:disagree. The outfielder had already hit the peak of his jump and missed the ball. The fan wasn't out over the field. Best argument Auburn could have made was that they were deprived of a chance to bring it back in play, but it was never going to happen.RED AG 98 said:
Borderline to be sure. Call definitely could have gone either way without much argument.

Funny that y'all brought this up. I let my nine and ten year old watch the original Bad News Bears on Monday. They loved it and begged to watch "Breaking Training" the next night. They loved it too and have been saying "hope we didn't hurt the baby bears!" all week long. So of course they had to finish the trilogy and watch "Japan"too. It was so freaking bad we had to turn it off half way through. I completely forgot just how awful Tony Curtis and part 3 were. It's like they set out to make the worst movie imaginable.

Took a look before the game. Not a huge gap, but given the arm angle and height above the rail, I feel pretty sure the ball was clearing the fence.RED AG 98 said:
His arm is fully extended and about 45 deg or so relative to the fence, so it's definitely a good foot or two in front of his body. Good point on distance between the rail and the fence. That is likely the key here.

Thanks. You're probably right. I'm pretty sure that would have been called 5/10 times in the MLB.
