Much has been written and said about the Atlanta outing and Thundersticksgate.
Personally I am finding most of the people disturbed by the outing were not there or are generally misinformed. Keith @medigaoon was there and this was his take. But why not hear from the founder of the t-shirt empire and the organizer of the trip himself? Darren has posted an excellent post over on his site. Please read it: No thunder sticks? | The 7 Line
Re the chop – I remember years ago (90’s I’d say) at a game at Shea there were for some reason a large number of Braves fans in the section I was in – and when the Braves jumped to something like a 7 run lead they were all with the chop – when the Mets came back to tie the game – on a three run homer that hit the netting on the left field foul pole – the mets fans around me (and myself) did the chop ourselves. it’s fun memory.
