Remember this. You and your friends are having a football game in your back yard. You are playing a game to 3, and you are tied 2 to 2. You take it on your shoulders to be the quarterback and tell everyone to "go deep". You say hike (in the shotgun, obviously) run around dodging your blitzing friends, you see your WR running and let it rip. The ball is a perfect spiral as you release it, and is headed towards your streaking WR. Then you realize the ball is flying over his head and over the fence of your grouchy old neighbor, never to see the ball again. Fuck.
Well a similar situation happened to these kids in Ohio and this was the result:
"An 89-year-old Ohio woman arrested for refusing to return a neighbor kid's football has dropped her lawsuit against the boy's parents.
Edna Jester's attorney filed to drop the lawsuit on Monday. She had sued her next-door neighbors in December, claiming she suffered emotional distress because footballs and other playthings belonging to them keep landing in her yard in the Cincinnati suburb of Blue Ash.
In October, Jester confiscated the neighbor boy's football and wouldn't give it back. She was taken to a police station charged with petty theft. The prosecutor later dropped the case."
It's genius. I wish I had the balls to sue my neighbors for petty theft. That would be the perfect way to give that senior critter living next to you a big fuck you. Good for these kids.
