(7 posts)10. Aberration
Having attended hundreds of Indians games for almost 60 years, I remembers seeing a shot of those three fools at the end of last season and wondering where they came from. I never saw a painted red face at either the new or old stadium or saw any of the stereotypical nonsense that goes on at Braves games in Atlanta ( war chants, tomahawk chops ).
I had seasons tickets the first 6 seasons the new stadium opened.
These few are looking for attention, not being fans. 99.99% of Indians fans don't do this.
