    There should only be legal charges if a heavy object hits someone else, like in this case.

    For the rest, lifetime banning from all future major league sports games, basketball, football, baseball, etc. would probably be enough to end the stupid trend.

    If that doesn’t do it, then like someone else mentioned, blacklisted at Ticketmaster would be enough.

    I don’t think calling the cops is needed unless there’s physical abuse.

      If someone throws a dildo at a basketball game in New York in 2025, how are they going to be banned from a baseball game in California in 2035? Will they somehow be flagged when they try to buy a ticket online? Will they be stopped at the gate when some security guard recognizes them from being banned 10 years ago on the other side of the country? Do we need a new government agency to track professional sports dildo throwers? Or perhaps a Federal Dildo Throwing Registry?

      A massive expansion of government oversight is called for here. There should also be a comprehensive investigation into dildos, dongs, and dong-like devices, with a path to prohibition of any long cylindrically shaped items.
