A fan took NFL player’s first TD ball. Now a strip club is offering a reward for its return.
Former Florida Gators star Brian Poole scored his first NFL touchdown on Sunday for the New York Jets.
It’s a moment the Bradenton native cherished. But the former Southeast High standout doesn’t have the football he scored with as a keepsake.
That’s because a fan in the stands snatched the ball from his hand as the defensive back was celebrating his pick six with his teammates during the third quarter of the Jets’ 34-3 victory over the Oakland Raiders.
Poole took to Twitter to enlist the help of his followers to find the culprit, even offering the incentive of a signed jersey in return for the ball.
Poole’s request led to other businesses offering rewards to the person that steps forward. They ranged from free driving lessons to a free mattress and a New York City strip club offered free VIP access for every Jets home game for life, according to multiple reports.
