Bolton / Bolton v. Stone was wrongly decided on the facts. The proper result would have been to find the club liable, but not require grounds changes.

None of those concerns really apply in the baseball cases, though I would find for the plaintiffs if and only if the stadium is in any way publicly funded, because, um, er, unclean hands cause improper grip.

Hypo: what if 25m smallbore target shooting were to become a major spectator sport, and hired Roger Goodell as commissioner?
