According to the 2008 NFL Fine Schedule, the fine for throwing a ball into the stands is a mandatory $5,000 for the first offense and $10,000 for the second offense. I'm not sure what changes, if any, were made for the 2009 season. Here are some of the other listed fines ... pretty interesting list.
