Random adults at School ballgames.

What about adults who attend school ball games? Adults who have no children.

To cut back on perverts, stalkers & pedos, do you think that all adults at school games should have to give the name of the child they're there to see in order to buy tickets?

No way. Some people may be there because they once attended that school or it's their hometown. Maybe they just like ball games. We shouldn't just automatically start assuming adults are pervs. Adults can't be banned from everywhere children might be. What kind of crazy society of fear would that create? Obviously if people regardless of age behave inappropriately in ANY setting it should be dealt with but there's nothing wrong with adults attending school games.

No.

I don't think adults should have to give the name of the child they're going to see - this isn't Nazi Germany, but I have to wonder what kind of life these adults have if they're watching kids they don't even know. Sounds boring as hell to me.

Of the few things left in my hometown, a baseball field is among them. A lot of guys like my dad, retired and bored, go there for kids' games. It's not so much to watch the kids but to socialize with other spectators.
