Another story of greedy adult taking advantage of a kid.
At last night's NFL game, Cardinals RB Chris Johnson scored a TD and proceeded to give the ball to a young kid in the front row. After the kid took the ball and Johnson turned away, an unidentified person knocked the ball out of the kid's hands, where an adult (not sure if the same person or a different one) came up with the ball and, despite many urgings, refused to give the kid his ball back.
The kid's dad posted the story on Facebook, and TV talk show host Montel Williams saw the post, after which he contacted the Cardinals.
The story had a good ending as the kid was given another football, this one signed by QB Carson Palmer, and was invited to come down on the field.
Too bad nobody outed the name of this cruel adult.

Cool story. I am glad that the kid got something at the end. Too bad someone didn't take a pic or video of the guy that took the ball & post it on social media.
I found a story on youtube by the kid.

Re: Another story of greedy adult taking advantage of a kid.
I watched the top video in the link and it shows a guy giving the kid a puck. Then later, the Pens mascot gives him a Crosby jersey. The final picture show the kid wearing the Crosby jersey and holding two pucks. Good for the Pens!
Peace!

Re: Another story of greedy adult taking advantage of a kid.
It was intended for the kid and the kid should have gotten it. However, how many pucks has this kid gotten at these games would be a better way of looking at it? A lot of times when pucks, baseballs, etc. are given away, the kid has gotten plenty of them already. We don't know in this scenario, but that is what I thought of when I saw this happen.
