Chivalry really is dead.
After scoring a touchdown in the third quarter of Cincinnati's 27-10 win against the Saints at the Superdome, Bengals tight end Jermaine Gresham flipped the football to a woman in the front row wearing an A.J. Green jersey. Before she could fully grasp it though, a Saints fan to her right grabbed the ball and kept it for himself. Gresham saw the incident unfold and was pointing at the woman, conveying the ball was meant for her.
Interviewed on the CBS broadcast, the fan didn't feel badly about his actions whatsoever and had no plans on giving the ball back to the Bengals fan.
"Because I caught it," the man, identified as Tony Williams, told the Cincinnati Enquirer:
Christa Barrett, the intended recipient of Greshman's generosity, tried pleading with Williams to do the right thing.
"He was not budging at all," Barrett said. "He kept saying 'no ma'am.'"
Not even seeing video of himself overpowering a much smaller woman for the football was enough to make Williams reconsider his actions.
"Yeah, I saw it," he said. "I didn't mean to hit that young lady. I was just reaching for the football. I didn't mean to hurt the lady."
That attitude didn't sit well with Gresham, who said Williams "should be ashamed of himself" in a post-game interview with The Associated Press.
Fortunately, someone had enough sense to make things right as the Saints gave Barrett a football to take home as a souvenir.
