Yikes. That was really a douchebag maneuver. Perhaps he deserves the benefit of the doubt since he wasn’t seeing this from our angle, but I’d guess it would be pretty easy and common sensical to any normal adult to judge the situation for what it was intended to be.
He saw the ball guy toss it to a child, then kept it after the kid dropped it, instead of handing it back to the kid- and the douche-bags around him applauded it too...
People are really getting stupid.
He would have been on TV as Mr Nice guy if he had tapped the kid on the shoulder and handed it to him. Now he is Mr. Douche-bag.
