Arguing on Reddit is the best way to build the finger strength needed for dildo tossing.
Some say those two things go hand in hand.

I'm always surprised more people don't throw shit at any sports game. There's so many idiots you'd think at least 1/20,000 a game might do something foolish but apparently not.

Why is it always green? I had money on blue 😭
Edit: I’m kidding but it’s real. Blue was +1400. Black/brown had the likeliest odds, if not green at +200
Edit 2: some genius figured out you could make a cool 70k profit by maxing out the bet then throwing a blue one yourself

Yeah but that guy was dumb enough to brag about it on social media immediately. If you just STFU, take the arrest/ticket/ban/etc, it would be difficult to get caught. Even harder if you have a friend place the bet so it's not in your name.

How do they actually enforce this (ban them from a venue)? Have photos up everywhere?

u/YYqs0C6oFH 19d ago
Don't quote me on this, but my understanding is that its very unlikely to be enforced at entry but if a person who was previously banned gets in trouble for something like this again then the cops can hit them with bigger trespassing type charges.

It'd also hit harder if they were kicked out after the game started. Then it's too late to sell the tickets, and they may have bought some concessions.
