The Homerunner's Hobby is a community-created special taunt for the Scout.
When activated through the taunts menu, a team-colored bean bag chair pops up behind the Scout, along with a bag of corn chips and a comic book. The Scout grabs the comic book and throws himself back on the chair, then eats a chip, turns the page, laughs while slapping his right knee, eats another chip, looks around, and shrugs, before the animation repeats. When the taunt ends, the Scout gets up, and the chair, the bag of chips and the comic book disappear.
The Homerunner's Hobby was contributed to the Steam Workshop.
