Protests erupted at the World Series games, where Atlanta Braves fans would, as a gesture of support for their team, pretend to swing a tomahawk. Native Americans considered the gesture offensive, and after some pressure finally persuaded Jane Fonda to stop doing the "chop." Fonda is married to Ted Turner, the communications magnate who owns the team.

Furthermore, doctors warned that the Tomahawk Chop may produce "repetitive motion injuries."

[Ed.: During the tenth inning of the seventh game of the 1991 World Series, Atlanta Braves owner Ted Turner fell asleep in the stands.]
