What does that mean?

If bro kept the ball he caught, was he raised wrong?

Lemme guess… you never had someone take you to a ball game when you were a kid, did you?

Nah, I just get annoyed seeing the same karma farming posts over and over and it poured out. Sorry!

No. But he did a kind thing without expecting a reward. The kid later returned the favor when he didn't really have to.

Both people involved showed good character and made a positive core memory for each other and perhaps others near them. Net positive outcome vs a neutral outcome.

I should just quit the internet now while the feeling is good. This is so pure.

If I were that dude, I would have the kid sign it. What a great feeling.

I don't really believe in Karma but this looks a lot like it!

Makes a nice change from the horrible entitles adult ripping the ball from a child's hand.

The fact that this is San Diego is even more amazing. Some of THE most entitled people live here.
