Did you guys give it to Cam after the game?
And they were like, wait till you hear this.
So here's what happened with the K-balls.
So you have a certain amount of K-balls you can have all week long, get them ready.
Used to be you get them on game day, scuff them up, do what you need to do.
But now the rules change this, you have them all week.
So before the game, you test out some balls on the field, right?
And you probably have a ball you want to use for kickoffs.
And you'll have another few balls that you use for placements, field goals, extra points.
So the first placement of the game is the 68-yard field goal.
And it sets the NFL record at halftime.
So the equipment staff's like, hey, we're going to put this off to the side and save it and whatever.
He's like, no, I want to use that ball the rest of the game.
It's the best ball we have.
I'm going to use that ball.
So he uses the ball on every field goal and extra point the rest of the game.
The ball went in the stands twice, missed the net, went over the net.
The first time, the fan wanted to keep it, wouldn't throw it back down to the field.
So they had to go up and negotiate and barter.
He just didn't know it was the ball because it's the different kick.
