“Phillies Karen” is still the talk of the sports world.
In case you missed it, a home run ball by Philadelphia Phillies outfielder Harrison Bader made national headlines due to one fan berating a father and son to hand over the ball after it reached the stands.
Drew Feltwell, his son Lincoln, and daughter Avery appeared on Fox News’ “America Reports” to talk about the viral moment, where Drew Feltwell thought he was making a core memory for his son after finding Bader’s homer on the ground among multiple spectators. But a female Phillies fan was captured marching up to the Feltwells, demanding they give her the ball.
Fans battling for any type of memorabilia is hardly uncommon, but a specific memory has stuck out to Griffin well over a decade later. Griffin was in New York for the Heisman Trophy ceremony, when he signed an autograph for someone who, he thought, was paralyzed from the waist down.
“So I signed the autograph, go the ceremony, win the Heisman, come back, and the guy’s walking the streets of New York, looks at me, winks and laughs, and then continues to like go try to get autographs from some other people that were there,” Griffin said.
“It was pretty wild, but there’s no lengths that people are not willing to go to get an autograph.”
