A woman has been caught on camera cruelly popping a kids' beach ball at a concert.

I mean, I get it - kids can be really bloody annoying sometimes. When they're not dribbling all over you or punching you for no apparent reason, their toys are driving you round the bend with all kinds of bleeping noises and flashing lights.
And then suddenly a ball comes flying over into your face, before a sheepish child comes sidling over to ask for it back. Not ideal.
But popping a beach ball so that no one can enjoy it does seem a little harsh - as this one woman did at a concert recently.
According to reports, concertgoers spotted the woman getting annoyed when a beach ball came her way, saying she would spike it on to the stage and laugh about it.

The situation then escalated, and after realising there were many other offending balls, she decided to stuff each one under her legs, under her chair and to the side of her - before eventually deciding to start ripping holes in one.
Other parents had to grab the beach balls just so that she couldn't pop any more, while some even confronted her and asked her to stop, but she refused.
In the end, they reached a stalemate, as no one wanted to cause a scene that would mean the woman got kicked out - as that would mean her child would also have to leave.
Over on Reddit, users were fuming at what they saw.

One person said: "What possible issue could she have with a beachball? I mean, it's not gonna hurt if you get hit with it and the kids love it. Can't wait for this to go viral so we can see her crying on some news program and explaining herself."
Another commented: "Probably complains to her H.O.A. about the color of her neighbors' blinds and calls the cops on kids playing soccer in the cul-de-sac."
Others noted how 'sad' the child that was sat with her looked.
One person wrote: "That's so sad. All the other kids are jumping around having fun, her kid looks like they're gonna cry."

Some other people wanted to give her the benefit of the doubt, keen to hear from her side about what went down.
One said: "I'd really like to hear her side of this and understand why she felt 1) it was necessary to destroy property that wasn't specifically hers and 2) entitled enough to go against the agreed upon social norm at the shared public space/event... I don't want to judge her and I hope she's just really confused about her role in life and how actions affect people."
