They told her a proposal was happening behind her, but she wanted to watch the game and the photographer was in the way. Not everybody feels like being caught up in somebody else’s moment. And some folks just like spreading the bah humbug.

AMEN and Dont I know that.
Recently I was hoping to make a few photographs of what appeared to be a fairly talented classical guitarist performing in a public park. When I approached his position he flipped me off.
The big question here is whether they did the proposal between innings or while the ball was in play. If it was between innings, the old battle-axe needs to chill out. If the game was going on, I'm with her all the way.
Took my niece and her boys last month to Fenway Park. I was in Boston on business, hadn't been to the "home team" park in years, and we were lucky to get seats on 5 hours notice. We were sitting in the bleachers at about $75/tickets.(Another story for another day). Anyhow, about 3 rows in front of us was a batchelorette party of about 5 or 6, who would jump up and drink and dance and whatever, but between innings. My nephews thought it was cool seeing some well built young ladies parading around (hey, they're teenage boys!). When the game started, the girls would sit down and watch the game or at least let everyone behind them do so, no harm no foul.
However, About 10 seats away was some obnoxious "fan" who spent a little too much pre-game time at the "Cask and Flagon" and was well oiled before the game started. Well, he was getting in people's face, causing a ruckus and being a real jerk, all while the game was going on. Needless to say, those people unfortunate to be sitting close by him were ready to do some unmentionables to the guy, but, lucky for him, about 6 sailors sitting in the next section came over to explain a few things to him. Not to mention checking on the young ladies...
I guess my point is that, while in general the woman was probably behaving boorishly, there may be some extenuating circumstances involved...
Yeah, and baseball is so exciting if you look away for just a moment you may miss an important play that wins the game, and puts the team on the road to the world series where they will win, but you missed it because a couple of young adults decided to make it a big day for themselves and you have to spend the rest of your life regretting those 30 seconds you missed because a cameraman was taking a photo.
I can see your point.
