‘Our staff made a mistake’: Toronto Blue Jays fan tossed from Rogers Centre for sporting ‘Canada is not for sale’ hat: Etobicoke resident Dan Begley was supposed to be at the Rogers Centre on Thursday afternoon watching the Jays home opener with two of his buddies. Instead, the longtime fan said he was “escorted out of the stadium by two big security guards” just moments after the game began due to his choice of headwear. For today’s game, Begley, who is 70, wore a Blue Jays hoodie and a red ballcap with the slogan, “Canada is not for sale.”

It was difficult to watch, I saw the clip last night with no context.
You could see he was in pain.
Good on the White Sox, and now MLB to ban the guy from all parks.
I try not to be vindictive, but it'd be a real shame if the goof's name/photo leaked.

$2 million base with, I believe, $5 million more in incentives.
Yes, some easily attainable (assuming good health, decent play), others team success dependent.
