Seely says that if a fan is involved in some sort of action when something good happens in a game – for example, standing at a certain spot in front of the TV waving a Yankees commemorative salt shaker – the best way to respond is by keeping your discovery under wraps. "Calmly pretend nothing happened," he instructs. "Note precise time and body placement; relocate saltshaker to a secure place, keeping encrypted records to ensure a perfect re-creation of said event in the postseason, or whenever necessary."
