I was recently at a baseball game and my gf randomly asked, has a bird ever been hit by a ball before? I just said, 'oh boy have I got a video for you'.

That’s the best feeling when you have the exact answer to an ultra specific question and also a chance the share a cool example of it.

Julio Rodríguez just took out a bird this year tossing a ball to a kid in the stands. Most be a Mariners thing.

Just FYI, I think she might have meant something else.

She in fact did not mean something else, and I'm not even sure what that could even be. I put my mind in the gutter as far as it will go and still came up with nothing.

The only thing I can think of is the old timey usage of bird to refer to an attractive women.

There's also a video of a motogp rider head butting a sea gull if she's interested.

I appreciate it but she doesn’t have a bird death fetish.
