Los Angeles Baseball Fans Send Message To Yankees & Phillies With Their iPhones

angry-los-angeles-baseball- With hopes of an all-Los Angeles Major League Baseball World Series crushed by the Philadelphia Phillies and New York Yankees, angry Los Angeleans found solace in their iPhones. Dodgers and Angels fans turned to a virtual Maneki Neko, a popular Japanese sculpture, to express their emotions towards the Phillies and Yankees. While traditionally the Maneki Neko is believed to bring good fortune, these irate baseball enthusiasts found a loophole in the iPhone version created by Vanilla Breeze. Labeled “Reverse Hand Motion”, this feature turns a “too cute” Maneki Neko into a foul-mouthed feline boiling over with bad luck mojo. Tough to blame Dodgers and Angels fans for expressing such strong sentiments … but at least there’s an app for that … Fingering Cat.
