Abstract: |
A sporting event novelty device is comprised of a glove adapted for use by a spectator attending a sporting event. The novelty glove envelops the hand of a spectator and has a pocket located on its front side in spaced separation from the fingers and thumb of the glove. A piece of cloth colored the same color as the color of an official's penalty flag for the sporting event attended by the spectator is removably concealed within the pocket for withdrawal therefrom at the option of the spectator. The cloth may be spread across the front side of the glove and releasably secured thereto by mating hook and loop fabric fasteners. Display of the cloth in this manner by the spectator symbolizes the observation of a rule infraction by the spectator.
