Full on theft
It's awesome when a player hands you a souvenir after winning a game - when I was a kid Wendell Tyler gave me his sweat rag thing he wore during a game - i thought it was the Holy Grail
But it would have been totally uncool if I ripped that thing from Tyler when he wasn't expecting it. So ripping the hat off his Jared's head is whack
That was a special Army hat too
Fans need to think twice. Stop trying to junx crap. Rams are pmaying well -- why F around?
Let me put it to you this way, me being a superstitious guy -- what if that was his super mojo hat, like something Sampson-esque ? Now I know that's not the case becuase Jared was cool and just kept going -- if it was any more significant he would have asked for it back -- but still, it's not proper fan etiquette and we shouldn't be messing around right now
But when is it okay? I mean I can see the theif's POV -- i mean there is a killer souvenir.
* so i came up with a short Quiz to test when it's okay to steal from your football idols:
1.
You take more than one complimentary pen when you discover Mike Guman is your life insurance salesman
Answer - YES, it's totally cool. #44 has eight boxes of those and he's looking to reprint soon and go ball point.
2.
You pocket Vince Ferragamo's score card when you're his volunteer caddie at the Los Coyotes Pro-Am in Buena Park in '92
Answer - YES, it's totally cool, Vince would want it that way
3.
You are a room service attendant at the Anaheim Marriott and are restocking Chuck Knox's bar and notice he's still rocking the Seahawks lighter even though he just got hired by the Rams for a second time, so you take it.
Answer - YES, it's totally cool, Chuck needs to step up and get himself a Rams lighter, plus your out of matches and these GPC's aren't gonna light themselves
4.
Swiping Jared Goff's hat from his hat after he comes to give you high fives
Answer - HELL NO
AWESOME! #'s 2 and 3! Thought they had just a little too much personal touch to them. Cool stories!
I personally did both 2 and 3 in my lifetime so I am an expert on this subject
