Four-Year-Old Philadelphia Phillies Fan Caught Drinking Beer At Game

Earlier this season, a Phillies fan was arrested after he decided it was a good idea to throw up on a father and his daughters.
Another was hit with a taser after running onto the field.
Now, they have 4-year-olds drinking beer in the stands .
Apparently, the blond kid on the right was shown taking sips from that Miller Lite (I drink Miller Lite, too!) at least two times during the live broadcast of Sunday’s game against the San Diego Padres.
I’ll be honest—I think this is funny. Incredibly irresponsible, but funny. This kid will now have a great story to tell at his future AA meetings.
Here’s a video of the incident from The Fightins .
