Sounds like a good thread opportunity. I'm sure we would get to hear the story about Hank Aaron getting tricked into signing a ball that he probably would have 'retrieved' from the owner if he had known what it was.
I heard a radio talk-show host ask a football player the other day if he "kept the ball" (referring to a touchdown ball), and the player responded that he tossed it aside - in the moment, he hadn't thought to keep it. Equipment managers normally grab such items, tag them and save them on the sidelines, but who knows what ball actually gets given to the player;e.g-Dwight Clarke's 'the catch'.
