marlin2266 Posted April 11, 2004 Share Posted April 11, 2004 I went into Gate F around 4:45 and there was a mass scrum for the giveaway rings.  Grown men were pushing others down & a police officer finally had to take the rings away to prevent serious injuries. Other stories??????

Mave Posted April 11, 2004 Share Posted April 11, 2004 I got there at 5:10, and they were already gone. Â People were fighting for some cheap plastic? Unbelievable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bman8316 Posted April 11, 2004 Share Posted April 11, 2004 Me and Primetime were there right when the gates opened in like the middle of the line and each of us walked out with 2 rings  Then we went to safe grounds and watched others almost kill each other to get it, I saw one security guard almost get killed by some women because he was trying to get out of a crowd that they made around him, and there were little children crying and screming out they couldnt breathe. But we got our two rings and a Marlins win so we are happy.

Marlins2003 Posted April 11, 2004 Share Posted April 11, 2004 First of all they are great keysakes! Not some plastic piece if crap, Loria did the fans right with them. Thank you Jeffrey once again for showing South Florida what a class guy you are. Second, I really liked watching the Phils pretending nothing was going on. lolololol Third, the people behind us didn't get rings and were trying to buy one off people who did. They started at $10 and by the ninth they were up to offering $50 for one. No one took the bait. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bman8316 Posted April 11, 2004 Share Posted April 11, 2004 Yeah they werent plastic peices of crap.

Prime Time Posted April 11, 2004 Share Posted April 11, 2004 It was on the news. Ch 7 news. I went and got me two rings. One for myself, and one for my brother who could not attend. It was CRAZY. People were fricking jumping on each other for rings. It was terrible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From the pictures I saw online, they looked pretty crappy, but then again I did not get a chance to see the actual rings in real life.

dolfinfan305 Posted April 11, 2004 Share Posted April 11, 2004 I went in through gate F at that time and there was a huge crowd trying to get rings after 5 minutes of waiting, the cop said they had run out...then i went to the other side and they were handing them to people as they passed in (thats the way they should've done it in my side) and i asked and i got one. I got there early and almost didnt get one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
