There are few species of sports fan lower than the grown up who wrestles foul balls away from young kids, and we have a sighting.
At the Big Ten Baseball tournament in Omaha yesterday, a middle aged Iowa fan ended up with a foul ball after a one-on-one battle with a young kid for the souvenir. Mr. Iowa couldn’t have been happier because getting a foul ball is the best, even if it means crushing a small piece of a kid’s dreams.
This big shot ended up getting a small public shaming at the game, and a large digital one. Just be a good person. It’s not that hard.
That’s just foul.

It actually did end up working out for the kid because after the Ohio State team heard about his run in with Johnny Try Hard, they gave him a ball signed by the entire team.
Don’t worry
