‘After catching the pass, Bills tackle Jason Peters spiked the ball, which bounced into the second row of the seats. Protas came up with it, then protected it for the rest of the game by placing it into a plastic bag. After the game, Protas approached Losman near the players parking lot, asking for an autograph. Losman signed the ball and returned it to Protas. On the drive home, Protas began to wonder whether Losman might want to have the special ball.’
