When your favorite team is playing in a road stadium, and you're in the stands, you don't always get treated the best.
But a Bengals fan who saw her team take on the Saints in New Orleans saw it ratcheted up to a whole new level this weekend.
Jermaine Gresham, who had two catches for two touchdowns against the Saints, rewarded loyal fan Christa Barrett with a touchdown ball. Not so fast my friend, this old, mad-at-the-world Saints fan decided to steal the ball from her.

Barrett begged and pleaded to get the ball back, but the Saints fan just wasn't having it. The guy who snagged the ball, Tony Williams, told Cincinnati.com he wanted it for his 8-year-old grandson.
Saints fans got in on the act, chanting, "Give them the ball!" Williams was unmoved.
Gresham himself apologized and will make sure the young lady gets her ball.
The Saints gave her a replacement ball, even though it's not as good as the touchdown ball.
Williams stands by his decision to keep it.
"Yeah, I saw it," Williams said, according to cincinnati.com. "I didn't mean to hit that young lady. I was just reaching for the football. I didn't mean to hurt the lady."
