The Happy Heckler is for baseball fans everywhere. It's a hilarious day at the ballpark, seated beside the sport's greatest fan, Rob Szasz, a.k.a. the "Happy Heckler." Szasz provides an insightful view of America's favorite pastime-not just from the stands, but from the unique perspective of a loud, funny, and wildly enthusiastic fan who heckles players on the field towards victory or defeat.

Perhaps the worst sports book ever written,
By Jim Pankovits (Tucson, Arizona) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Happy Heckler (Paperback)
MY GAWD! This is a horrid book and it seems the author spent two hours banging it out on his old Commodore 64 computer. You should be able to sue for pain and suffering after reading this snoozer. How did it even get published?
5.0 out of 5 stars
good clean fun book,

Good book. It was a great gift for a Rays fan. They're winning. It's hard to go to games with kids when there are a lot of people just yelling for the heck of it. This guy knows how to do it. He goes to the games with HIS kids too. A good book by a true fan.

Heckling is a bad thing? This book is not.,

This review is from: The Happy Heckler (Paperback)
The subtitle of the book is HECKLING IS A BAD THING?
Rob Szasz's book on heckling is, surprisingly, one of only two books I know of on the subject. The "Tampa Bay heckler" has written a book about his experiences in good-natured heckling of opponents of his team, the Devil Rays (who need all the help they can get). Ron is always tasteful in his heckling (and in the book), avoiding off color language and steering clear of anything personal that would be hurtful to the players he targets. Anyone who has watched a Tropicana game on TV (or been there) has heard Rob Szasz. He makes the point that he most enjoys the players who get a chuckle out of his heckling. The ones who can't take a joke aren't really very good targets, anyhow. The whole thing is in fun, and so is the book. I wish we had more fans like Rob Szasz.
