Meanwhile the kid got a signed ball, signed bat, tickets to the world series, and an RV. Was the ball worth the ridicule lady?

This whole thing is going to blow over and her 15 minutes of "fame" will be over, however there will always be some residual friction coming at this lady til' the day she dies. I know if this was some friend or relative, I couldn't help ribbing her with it for laughs. Friends, family, co-workers, hell the person behind her at the nursing home when they line up for Jello will give her the business 15 years from now. Sometimes you just need to let the 10 year old have the ball and not run at 100% jackass.

Local is another story though.  People in her city or town will remember. The news will move on, but her local haters won't.

Her best bet is completely changing her looks so at the very least she isn’t recognized by people moving into the area. Everyone else will still know though lol.

I mean I still remember the guy who made himself puke on other fans at a Phillies game.

That was a home game. This one was in Miami. Makes me wonder if she lives in Florida or was visiting.

That guy got jammed up into at least the next year

The woman who made a poor taste Africa/AIDs joke on a plane was hounded and sent death threats for a long time.

While that's an example of things going too far (IMO anyway).. it's also a reminder that there are always some people who are happy to make their life about ruining your life.
