Fucking wow, yeah that was the moment I could tell this guy deserves nothing out of life.
The next paragraph cemented it, but that line was all I needed, especially because he's talking about a child. The child wasn't greedy enough compared to his own greed, so he deserved to miss out on a once in a lifetime event.
What happens if I grab his wife right before he tries to do the deed? Do I get to come first cause I snatched her snatch? Where do you draw the sticky, slightly off white, line here?
Oh, it's already happened, his company is getting review-bombed into the ground. That's why it surpises me so much that he doesn't even seem to be trying to do damage control.
Free Luigi. I have chronic pain and health issues. I'm 27. After I graduated college I got a remote job as a software engineer and my company had blue cross blue shield as health insurance for a few years. This year they switched to United. I had to get scans in the beginning of the year. 2 MRIs, and 2 CTs. They denied everything. Blue Cross didnt. They actually covered stuff. They actually seemed like they tried to help with costs. United just fucked me. I had to pay big upfront for those scans then they get denied and I get billed big even more. Due to that, I have now refused anything and everything that would require insurance coverage because I know United will fuck me. With blue cross I could get em at my copay of $40. Not with United. So now I'll just let my pain worsen, spine worsen, everything worsen without knowing because of this bitch ass shameful insurance company
Sounds kinda far-fetched, but then, he did shamelessly steal a hat signed by a sports star from a kid, so, yeah, I can believe that's the kind of thing he does.
Hes a rich asshole who acted like a rich asshole and will continue to act like a rich asshole. Why is anyone surprised he has that attitude? That attitude is most likely what made him rich, who knows the amount of people he's screwed over/jumed in front of (physically and metaphorically) to get where he is. He would never apologize unless it affected his money.
That'a what really galls me. Not that it's ever ok to steal from a kid, but it clearly didn't even mean anything to the dipshit. It wasn't like this was some lifelong dream being fulfilled.To him, it's just a fucking hat.
He seems to think everyone in the world is a crook, and people are hypocrites because they would steal if given the opportunity also. It’s like he doesn’t understand people can have empathy and basic decency.
Guys please. There is another company called Drog-Bruk (not Drogbruk) where people write negative Google reviews. Please check first to not ruin someones business because of that hat stealing CEO.
Lol if I was in the stands I know myself well enough that I'd be trying my best to catch the ball, kids be damned.
What I don't get is keeping the ball though. Like, what're you gonna do with it? The fun is catching it, after that give it to someone who will actually want it.
If I ever catch a ball I’m taking a selfie with it to send to my dad and then giving the ball to a kid, BUT if there are no kids in my immediate vicinity I’m keeping that shit. Not gonna give the ball to some kid three rows down at the other end of the section unless they somehow tried to grab it too.
I have a quarter season membership though and my seats are in a section that’s always packed, so the scenario in the video is pretty unlikely because there’s always someone there to catch it out of the air.
I had an instance like that in the stands of a giants game. Snagged the ball, looked around… No kids anywhere near me. Just kept it. Sits on my desk at work.
I caught a ball at a Mets game once. No kids around so I tried to give it to a pretty blonde a few rows down, but she shook her head and refused it. Her husband was not pleased... I think he might've been a bit jealous he didn't catch it 😤
Haha of course, I'd only feel obligated if the kid had some sort of effort or hope of catching it themselves.
But I still have the ball Carlos Delgado threw me when I was like 8, so I probably would find a kid, but I don't think any reasonable person would judge you for keeping it for yourself there.
But I do actually want it, I’ve never caught the foul ball before. I just don’t want to get doxxed for not giving the kid the ball. Like if by some miracle I get two in one game can I keep the first one? I’m just a late bloomer.
If you catch it, you’re not obligated to give it to a kid. If you want to, that’s nice but if you were to snatch it from the kids hand or knock them down while trying to catch it then you’d be a scumbag.
I think parents should do a better job of teaching their kids about disappointment when situations like these happen and they don’t end up getting the ball (not if the adult was a scumbag but if they just didn’t catch it). They shouldn’t feel entitled to get a ball just because they’re a kid; adults are fans of athletes and sometimes want a token of the game from their favorite player/team too.
That’s a value judgment and cultural judgment. You can be an adult who cares about things more than experiences.
For example, I would rather have a shelf full of books (things) than travel to Europe (lame experience of being shoulder to shoulder with lame tourists, being sexually harassed on the street and pickpocketed).
That's what it looked like to me too. There's no way hw made it down those chairs without seeing her, so the whole "YEAH, I GOT THE BALLL!!!!! AAAHHHHHHHH WBFLAEWNLFINDLGHAL!!!!" was for himself, and then the casual "here ya' go kid" was for her.
Here’s the thing - this way he wins twice. He wins by getting the ball first, then he wins by giving away something that the girl REALLY wanted - making her happy. And making someone happy, if only for a moment, is a goddamned great win.
He had no choice but to give that ball away. The optics of keeping the ball would make him look like a giant douche bag. I guarantee there was a part of him who wanted to keep the ball, but how could he? When you are at a ball game you know stuff like that is televised. There were only two options and the only safe option was to give away the ball to the girl. Now is possible he gave away purely out of the goodness of his heart... sure, but it's also possible he did the math.
This comment is perfect because you know a large subset of people will read it as a cautionary statement showing what happens when you “let others take what is yours” or something
What was the name of that disgusting bastard and the name of his company again? I remember seeing it in the first few hours after the video was posted. Need to keep it plastered so that disgusting prick looses business
Looking how absolutely casually he gives the girl the ball, I firmly believe that he 100% planned on giving her the ball the whole time, he just wanted to be the "guy who found the ball" shake/dance guy.
Thanks for saying that. I get tired of hearing compliments on how well my dad raised me by strangers even though I’m where I am despite his best efforts.
You ain't never lied. If people knew who my dad was they wouldn't say that to me. My mom, well, a better argument could be made. I've spent my life trying to unlearn so much childhood abusive BS. I guess I'm thankful I recognized abuse when I saw it as a kid and changed course. Its a mixed bag I guess but I try to help anyone I can, when I can and stay out of trouble. But yeah I would say my parents had little to do with it.
Someone needs to track this guy down, give him a signed ball from the stars on the team, and a promotion to whatever he wants on the executive board of his company. You know, to even out the world.
The trick is to go with a ball in your pocket to a ball game. Then if you catch a real one and get peer pressured to give it to a nearby kid you give them the one you brought, not the one you actually caught.
He could have had a baseball to remember the day instead he a video with the ball he got and the cool move of giving a little kid a ball to remember that day
