No. But there's plenty of smoke that says these fans have been out of control for some time.

Last year, someone threw a cell phone at a player and hit him in the head.

A couple of years ago, a drunken idiot threw a firecracker that didn't quite make it to the field and hit a little kid.

Going to an A's game sounds like walking into a prison yard.

...and a few years ago Oakland Raider players were hit with chunks of ice after a game at Bronco stadium... its happening all over, sink.

This Oakland fan stuff is mythology.
