Phillie Phanatic's hot dog cannon is synomous with Phillies games. But the Phanatic's flying meat mobile helped injure one fan at Monday's game.

Kathy McVay was sitting behind home plate when she got hit between the eyes with a hot dog from Phanatic's cannon, according to Philadelphia 6ABC. McVay had a shoulder injury, so she wasn't able to catch or deflect the dog.

"It just came out of nowhere. And hard," she said.

Full title: Phillies Fan Hurt After Getting Hit in Face by Flying Hot Dog From Phanatic's Cannon

_______

Getting hit between the eyes with a hotdog is not quite like a Nolan Ryan fastball on the cheek. But nevertheless Kathy McVay did nor 'relish' the event.

She actually is said to have been taken for a concussion exam.

Next time just throw her the hotdog.

To be frank, this whole incident has put the Phillie Phanatic in quite a pickle. Will his safety precautions cut the mustard? Or was he just acting like a little wiener?

Ms. McVay said she had no interest in suing anyone, but this story brought another story to mind.

LOL......(seated with Perry Como) ......

(WaPo) --- "McVay was seated behind home plate when the Phanatic rolled onto the field on a mobile hot dog launcher, as he (it?) has been doing for over a decade. McVay would not relish what was about to happen."

“And then the next thing I know he shot it in our direction, and bam! It hit me like a ton of bricks. My glasses flew,” she said.

McVay said she couldn’t avoid being struck by the hot dog, let alone catch it, because of a shoulder injury that is set for a surgical procedure. 6ABC reported that her facial injuries require treatment with ice every 20 minutes and have her feeling very sore.

"McVay expressed a similar notion in offering others this advice about attending Phillies games: “Just to be aware, because you never know. I understand a baseball, but not a hot dog.”"

"She also expressed an understanding of the potential humor to be found in her plight, despite her injuries. “It gives people a good laugh, and if that makes somebody chuckle, then that’s fine,” McVay said."

You’re probably right. It would take a lot of effort to ketchup to Bill here.

Thanks for the video.

I watched some of it.

That hotdog launcher kid seemed a little hard to take as a child ....... throwing food across the dinner table, shooting everything with his trusty slingshot, etc.

I'm sure glad he made something of himself (not).
