What is more sad is EVERYONE'S face has a smile on it while the guy is holding the cat by the tail. It would have been nicer if someone would have HELPED the man and the cat. Hopefully, someone did...

Yes, I saw it. The poor cat must have been scared out of its wits. I didn't think it was amusing. But it was a big laugh for all the cretins who enjoy that sort of thing.

That is kind of funny that he was in the stadium on the field, but yeah, I do feel bad for the kitty.. he must have been scared! Hopefully they find him a good home.

the cat apparently put up a big fight and scratched/bit several workers including the one that eventually caught her. I don't agree w/ the whole tail thing, but it appears that he didn't have any other choice. it's not like they train Wrigley workers on the proper ways to catch and restrain a stray cat. the cat is apparently okay and in a shelter right now
