Milwaukee Brewers Fan Forced To Cover Up Ryan Braun 'Fraud' Jersey

    A Wisconsin woman said Friday she is still a Milwaukee Brewers fan, even though security at Miller Park asked her to leave a game after she changed her Ryan Braun jersey to read "FRAUD."

    Karen Eidem, 37, of Pewaukee, said she papered over the letters "B" and "N" in Braun's name with the letters "F" and "D" on the back of her Brewers shirt after the slugger accepted a season-ending, 65-game suspension after admitting to violating baseball's rules on performance-enhancing drugs.

    "A lot of fans complimented me on the jersey," Eidem told The Associated Press in a telephone interview. "It was all meant in good fun. It wasn't meant to be derogatory."

    Eidem said security tapped her on the shoulder while she was standing with friends at the ballpark Wednesday night. She said she was told her the modified shirt violated the fan code of conduct, and that she would have to change the shirt or leave the ballpark. Eidem turned the shirt inside out and stayed for the game.

    This violated the fan code of conduct? Are you freaking kidding? I bet the drunk guy next to her screaming profanities at the left fielder enjoyed the extra leg room.

    What a joke.

    Security overreacts to a lot of stupid crap at events. IF I where her, I would wear that same shirt to the next Brewers game she goes to.

    Good...Justice prevails on that one. Just because you are security doesn't mean you are always right. A butthurt security guard must have approached her.
