stupid people are funny

A woman who was seriously injured by a foul ball at Fenway Park has no grounds to sue because she assumed a risk by attending the baseball game, a state appeals court ruled...The three-member [court] panel said that even someone with scant knowledge of baseball should realize that "a central feature of the game is that batters will forcefully hit balls that may go astray from their intended direction."

Tough cookies, lady. You went to a baseball game in which the general idea is to whack a ball really hard with a stick. There are many options to avoid getting hit with a ball at a game: wear a catcher's mask. Duck. Don't sit really close to the field. Don't go. If this woman thinks she can sue for something like that, she doesn't belong in a baseball stadium or really anywhere else.
