If Dad had gone to the concession stands, popped open the cash drawer while the attendant was serving the line, and swiped $500 from the till, then scooted back to his seat and gave the cash to the kid, would he be allowed to keep the money just because "I did it for my boy! It's his birthday…sometime this month…"?
(This assumes that Miami's park still allows cash transactions. Remember, I'm Officially Old.)

What if the guy was exiting the row on his way to rob the concession stand right when Bader hit his home run and his progress put him right where the ball landed. Would he have been in the wrong if he caught the ball, went an robbed the concession stand and then returned to his seat giving the ball and the money to his son for his birthday?
