Yes I am a big nerd. Please write the Commissioner of Baseball and ask him to not allow balloon releases in the future at Major League Baseball events:

The Office of the Commissioner of Baseball
Allan H. (Bud) Selig, Commissioner
245 Park Avenue, 31st Floor
New York, NY 10167

My sea turtle list serv posted that the Rockies did a ballon release at Game 3. Shame on them!
