A Buffalo Bills fan had a moment in life when he caught a wrong care from Josh Allen and jumped out of Highmark Stadium during the team’s loss to New England Patriots on Sunday night.
But while most people who saw the game thought the man was going home a souvenir and missing out on a pretty epic game, it turned out to be the opposite.

The fan was identified on Wednesday as Brian Kemp. He talked to WIVB TV about the moment and explained that he and his wife, Tara Halliwell-Kemp, had bought tickets from their friend, who is also a Bill’s super fan. Brian Kemp saw Allen roll to the right and throw the ball away.
“The next thing, I know, that bullet from Allen is coming … I mean, the biggest gun in the league, you know there was some warmth on that ball,” he told the station. “I was able to grab it, bring it in and I looked at my wife and I said, ‘I meet you in the car.'”
Tara Halliwell-Kemp said security came to her and asked for her husband to return the ball and that they would get him another football. She explained to officials that she had been promised it in the past, but it had never come to execution.

Brian Kemp explained that he ended up returning to his seat and ended up returning to the ball. But the ball he received in return ends up going to his friend.
“I ended up going back to the seat and fortunately returned the ball,” he told the station. “They gave me another ball in exchange, so this ball is unfortunately not the actual ball that Allen threw as I caught.
“However, everything is in order with the world. No theft occurred. There was no stolen property.”
