We know Brian Stowe was talking it up with Dodger fans in the stadium - that much can be verified. What we don't know is what happened in the parking lot. Are we really to believe that out of all the many Giant fans going through the parking lot at that time these bastards picked Stowe (not a small man) to jump for no reason? Again I am not justifying what happened or the horrid state of security at Dodger Stadium... but when I do the math - seems like someone ain't being straight here. Bottom line: I think Brian Stowe took his "team spirit" outside which, given the unfortunate realities on the ground, was a bad choice. Not excusing the beat down or lax security... but there was poor judgement enough to go around. The support shown the Stowe family is really a great thing. But elevating Brian Stowe to some kind of hero status... well, I just don't get that.
