This is one Pirates fan who deserves a standing ovation.

The Pittsburgh Pirates are definitely not one of the elite franchises in Major League Baseball.  In fact year after year their payroll  is among the lowest,  and they don’t often find themselves playing  in the postseason.  The  fanbase is probably not happy with the owner of the team, Robert Nutting. One fan took his hatred for the owner directly to the owner.

The fan rocked a Sell the  Team shirt while taking a picture with the Pirates owner.

See the legendary troll job below:

Nutting’s double take is absolutely hilarious:

Since Nutting bought the team back in 2007, Pittsburgh has 12 losing seasons to just three playoff appearances, including no playoff series wins.

Hopefully this fan got the Pirates fan base’s message across loud and clear.
