I work for the Oakland Athletics and my bosses/ coworkers make up rules all the time. They have rules in place for certain people as well.

I feel bad for the security guard trying to do his job and is now all over the internet

[kevink]

If you’ve followed his content, you know what he does which is pretty scummy honestly. He does his best to get foul balls at any cost, including jumping in front of little kids and other people. He then tries to save face by adding in clips of him giving away balls to other kids for good pr, but still. A lot of people make it to the ballpark a couple of times a year tops, probably never have the opportunity for a home run ball, and then have to deal with a YouTuber, who doesn’t even sit in their section or cheer for their team, rob them of an awesome opportunity. Screw this dude.

I know this is an old video but Adam the Woo had an issue with a Coors Field usher as well. Idk what it is about those ushers being so rude. Don’t justify it by saying he’s doing just his job.

You almost knocked over a kid with his back to you....OVER A BASEBALL!

[b.michaelphillips]

Next time a foul ball is hit into the diamond club, I'm rushing in and grabbing some lobster. I have the right to enter any area where a ball is hit apparently lmao

[LPT.]

Hopefully people actually know that Zack is a great person because he is

[shorteststraw]

I look at it two ways. One side thinks, well, this dude shouldn’t be banned from mlb games, or on the other hand, this dude should be warned by the commission to let others have the baseballs

[jb]

He did what literally any fan would do but yeah because he’s Zack Hample he gets hate for it 🙄

[skrrtfranklin]

Poor John lol, a little to serious but Zack is just focused on what he likes

[wdzcpyw]

As much as Zach really wants to go after every ball which is cool, but there are rules in every stadium and there are fans pay lots of money for those seats for a better chance to catch a baseball. He’s kind of lucky he wasn’t kicked out.

[dylanbostrom]

He was just trying to get the ball he wasn't whining

[WolfRaging]

Moving over to left field because you know a ball will be hit there when your seat is in right field is not an "on the fly" rule. Some ballparks don't want people crowding sections where their seats aren't. Regardless of attendance. I'm not sure why Zack is shocked by this.

[greatest]

The Colorado Rockies Coors Field is one of the worst stadiums I've been to.

[agustinl]

It's funny how vic puts $4 baseballs yeah this ain't the 1930s my man

[kashwinchester]

When i went there e got mad at me for standing on the seats

[brianstone]

He’s a rent a cop he has 0 Authority over you

[FTLnovaKid]

Man these commenters don’t know who Zach is. He is very kind and great for baseball. And these replies continue to further my point. Zach wouldn’t have a following if people thought what he was doing is wrong. The ignorance of you people is astounding. Just cause he enjoys life and you don’t. Why do you have to assume he is a terrible person? And if what he did can be called “crying” I don’t even know at this point. 🤷‍♂️

[MidwestBoom]

Who cares at this point? They should be happy. Any one even shows up at the stadium's baseball is a dead ass sports and only survives on TV ad revenue.

[austinkitchens]

He going for a home run ball the person whining is security
