Perpetually Offended PETA Advocates for Baseball 'Bullpen' to Be Referred to as 'Arm Barn'
- People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) is advocating for the pitching area in baseball, known as the “bullpen,” to henceforth be known instead as the “arm barn.”
- The bullpen is the area where the pitchers warm up before heading out to play in the game.
- PETA says the term “refers to the holding area where terrified bulls are kept before slaughter,” and the organization has put forward “arm barn” as a suggested replacement.
