Saints Fan Has No Regrets About Stealing TD Ball
By Josh Sanchez
The a-hole New Orleans Saints fan who stole a touchdown ball intended for a female Cincinnati Bengals fan says he has no regrets for being a big jerk.
On Sunday afternoon, one New Orleans Saints fan boxed out a female Cincinnati Bengals fan and threw an elbow as he ripped the ball from her hands.

The ball — which was thrown into the crowd by Bengals tight end Jermaine Gresham — was clearly intended for the only Bengals fan in site in that endzone of the Superdome, but the Saints fan had zero F’s to give.
In fact, he showed no remorse.
“He kept saying, ‘No, ma’am,’ ” one of the women said about whether he would cough up the ball. ” ‘No, ma’am.’ ”
He then told the Cincinnati Enquirer, “It’s very simple. I caught the football. I didn’t mean to hit that young lady. I was just reaching for the football.”
The Bengals fan ultimately had the last laugh, however, because the Saints provided her with a replacement ball and the Bengals came away with the win. The women who had the ball stolen also found time to have some fun on social media.
Justice was served.
