In reply to the discussion: CEO that snatched a hat from a child at the US open reponds: I'll sue anyone that insults me. [View all]ForgedCrank

on who got to it first I think
However, that doesn't excuse it. The hat was very obviously meant for the kid and the guy snatched it, taking advantage of the situation at the expense of the kid and the good faith effort of the player (who also wasn't paying attention with all that was going on around him).
I see this crap all the time at the ballpark. The girls with the t-shirts and novelty giveaways try to target tossing stuff to the kids and there is always a jackass snatching it before the kids, who are much shorter, can get to it. It's enough to make your blood boil

Might be illegal to insult a public figure in Poland, but not here ... yet.

I wish Mike Tyson had been there. But I just googled and he's dead. Well, you follow my general idea.
