Have you ever sat by the opponents bullpens?

I sat on the front row right behind the bench in the opponents bullpen with my dad for about 8-9 years. They heckled the guys constantly but never said anything that crossed the line or got personal. Occasionally, some of the clever players for opposing teams would shoot something back that was pretty funny.

I've told this story on here before but I feel this is an appropriate time to insert it. There was a catcher for one of the opposing teams that wore this big glove underneath his catcher's mitt. It looks like a big gardening glove or something. There was this guy about 7-8 rows behind us that ALWAYS gave the guys in the bullpen a good laugh with his heckling. He asked him if that glove was for when he rode bulls. The catcher looked up without missing a beat and said "No, it's for when I ride your mother". The whole section erupted in laughter. It was great.
