Amen.

They should have "Wave Day" once a month, so all the dorks - and kids, to be fair - can do it together.

I love the article :

Of course you’d have difficulty starting The Wave at a Marlins game these days … it would be pretty sparse. More like The Combover.

I have never liked it and have never done it. Stupid. I want to watch the game not the idiots in the stands.

They should get rid of beer too. And mascots, and lighted score boards, and playgrounds for kids, and singing take me out to the ballgame during what will no longer be a seventh inning stretch...

cripes... if some kid at the ballpark gets a smile out of doing the wave and it makes their life a little happier, who am I to take that away from them?

"Damn kids, get off my... errr... your lawn!"

I'm fine with the mascots, lighted scoreboards, playgrounds for kids and the 7th inning stretch because none of those things interfere with my baseball watching experience.
The wave not only disrupts my ballpark enjoyment, but it can be distracting to the players as well.

Can we keep the other team's fans out of the park then? I find them far more distracting to my baseball experience. And the guys talking business behind me. Or kids. Kids are really annoying. They mostly ignore the game and talk about what food they want next or where the mascot is, or if they can get on TV. And people who don't know anything about baseball and talk out their ass the whole game...

The hardcore Right Field Faithful at Candlestick used to do the "Anti-wave", where they would standup from the field to the back of the wall, trying to crush the wave rolling around the stadium...

whew, glad I had a "kids" exemption in the original post

Funny thing is that's a picture taken outside Camden Yards in Baltimore, not in DC!
