Old Guy Out Hustles A Little Kid For A Foul Ball And Earns It Fair And Square

I already know that 99.9999999% of the takes on this are gonna be, “Fuck that guy. Let the kid have the foul ball you monster” but that’s bullshit. Are we now a nation where people get things they didn’t work for? That’s not my America. In my America, you get what you work for. If that kid wanted that foul ball he should’ve worked a little harder but instead the old guy worked harder and beat him to it fair and square. The people who are mad at the old guy for keeping the ball are the same people who say the younger generation is spoiled and lazy, so which is it? You can’t have it both ways. The old guy wanted the foul ball more so he tried harder and got it. That’s how life works.

Not to mention that old guy has probably been waiting 50+ years to get a foul ball, finally got one and now you want him to give it up so the internet doesn’t get made at him? Fuck that. You don’t know what that guy has been through in his life. He’s probably been chasing foul balls since Babe Ruth’s era and never gotten one. That little kid still has decades of foul balls to chase. Let the old guy have his ball and his moment. You people are the monsters.
