    Do you think that would have happened at a Raiders game or a Dodgers game?

    And yes, I think it could have happened in any stadium.

    All said in jest...I like the story and kudos to the fans.

    When he came back home, he realized what happened. A few hours later, we got a phone call. His wallet had been located and all of money was still in it. What a relief! It was a sizeable sum. I tried to offer the woman who found it a reward, but she wouldn't take it.

    I seriously didn't think I would see that money again. It was definitely one of those situations when you realize that there are still good and decent people out there.
