I’m not sure if PETA is really this stupid, or they just deliberately gin up the most insane PR release they can think of to get noticed.

Well now you’ll just offend all the people with one arm or no arms. ARM BARN? WTF?
I’ll ask a bull if they are offended... Until then, it’s bull💩! 🤓
Woketard MLB will probably take it seriously.
Arm Barn?
$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
The anti-2nd Amendment people will object!
Bullpen is named after Bull Durham tobacco, just like the “World Series” is named after the long-defunct New York World newspaper
I sometimes chewed it when fishing. It seemed the only place I could spit without being seen.
The cows - like ingrid newikirk - who run PETA do.
