Completely agree, Once you hit 13 the glove stays at home.

You've never tailgated at the ballpark?
If you throw the baseball around in the parking lot, I don't see any problem with bringing it into the game.

I've never taken my glove to a game period, but that's just me. I'd leave it at the tailgate if I did though.

I'll have mine when I go with my 7 yo this summer...but I didn't before him, after I was 13

I wear my glove......when I'm playing baseball, but never bring it to a MLB game. The odds of a foul ball being hit to you are so low that I don't see the reasoning to bring it.

I'll maybe bring it when my kids r old enough to take them, and they want to bring theirs. Ill cross that bridge when I get there, I just see them asking me to bring mine too. Outside of that, hellllllllllll nooooo!

I understand, i just think differently. Kids look up to you as a hero and role model imho. I'm not to cool to bring a glove to the park and catch a laser and give it to my child. Btw getting out of the way before a laser hits your face puts the old couple behind you at risk:P I understand how you feel but i'm not sure your thinking this all the way through:P

You said that a baseball glove at a baseball game looked retarded.
Your words.

I was wondering what else appears retarded to you.
Evidently... hats are OK. gloves are retarded.
That's a pretty big variance.
What about baseball jerseys? Are they retarded?

I don't take my glove to games but don't have a problem with guys that do. I still do plenty of kid stuff so I can't hate on someone for doing something like it.

Imagine Frank Beamer with a uniform on while coaching?

I wear a full football uniform with pads, helmet, and cleats to every game I attend. Got a problem with that OP?

Not taking the glove in. I have a hat if I need to make a Sportscenter grab.
