3. whatever.
They guy wasn't TRYING to be cruel...I suppose it would have been less cruel to let the cat stay on the field and possibly be hurt or killed a ball or bat..:eyes:

12. Or a billy goat
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Curse_of_the_Billy_Goat

The Curse of the Billy Goat refers to a legend commonly cited to explain why the Chicago Cubs Major League Baseball team has not won the World Series since 1908....

The Billy Goat curse was supposedly placed on the Cubs in 1945 when Billy Goat Tavern owner Billy Sianis was asked to leave a World Series game at the Cubs' home ground of Wrigley Field because his pet goat's odor was bothering other fans. He was outraged and declared, "Them Cubs, they aren't gonna win no more," which has been interpreted to mean that there would never be another World Series game played at Wrigley Field. The curse was immortalized in newspaper columns over the years, particularly by syndicated columnist Mike Royko, and gained widespread attention during the 2003 postseason when Fox television commentators played it up during the Cubs-Marlins match-up in the National League Championship Series.
