Attention Brian Knobbs

Mr. Nasty Boy,

Please leave Tropicana Field and NEVER COME BACK! This "Show" you put on for the camera is better suited for Infomercials or a local Bait N' Tackle show. You are a burden on the Tampa Bay Rays and I think more people would show up if you were not there. I mean, who wants to pay money too sit next to a 400 pound drunk that puts you in headlocks and fake strangles you? ( I wanted that ION interview guy to punch you sooooo badly in the trachea). Your antics are classless and put Rays baseball on the level of your "Sport"; wrestling. If you want to call it a sport. I'm excited about you wrestling on Saturday night and helping promote the Rays in this way (Inside the wrestling ring). However, I can't wait too see you squirm in the Steiner Recliner!

Signed,

This Guy

Geez

The guy bought a ticket, he’s doing his schtick that he was paid to do his entire wrestling career. If they didn’t want him to go all “Nasty Boy” on tv, they shouldn’t have interviewed him.

Simple as that…

I have no problem with Knobbs

If you look at the people around him at the games, they always seem to be having a good time. He seems to be nice enough and he draws attention to the Rays.

No problem with him.

The Diamondbacks have Alice Cooper, we have Brian Knobbs. He shows up, when no one else does.

Can't be any worse than an earful of Dicky V.

That’s Hall of Famer Dickie V to you!

I have no problem with Knobbs. Way better than the Happy Heckler.

His act has gotten old

It’s cool that he’s a Rays fan and all, but that whole testosterone-induced tirade thing was last year. It doesn’t need to continue for another year. Hopefully his re-appearance is confined to Wrestling Week or whatever.

He was sitting in almost the same seat during all of the spring training games. He’s a die hard fan!

Yeah and seriously...

We can’t really start pushing people out the door for being a fan

I agree completely

I just don’t think his presence should be emphasized as much this season on the JumboTron or on TV. He seems like a good fan, and I’m glad he goes to games. He actually seems like a pretty restrained fan outside of those TV appearances, but his appeal is to a certain segment of the population. Emphasizing that appeal makes sense for a “Wrestling Night” promotion, but it gets annoying when used constantly throughout the year.
