Have you ever caught the ball at a City game?

Yes caught the ball in 1973 v Leeds (I think) - we were winning 1-0 and holding on. Was told by an old guy to hold onto it, did for a while. When I got home watched MoD and commentator said "the crowd are keeping the ball but it won't help them."

My 3 seconds of fame.
 
Never caught it, but picked it up during the pitch invasion after the goal at Macclesfield away ... not realising how wet and muddy it was ... ruined me shirt and jeans!
 
Caught one at an away game at the City Ground - years ago - I kept it - even though it had Nottingham Forest on it. Seem to recall I made one more catch than Andy Dibble that night!
 
Pre season friendly vs Bristol City at Ashton Gate I caught wayward shot as I was in the front row. Being a kid who played in goals having Nicky Weaver say "cheers mate" with a thumbs up as I threw it back to him made my day even though we lost 1-0 lol
 
Caught one in the chest from a Nicky Reid shot at platt lane, whilst messing about behind the goals whilst they was training..

Took the wind right out of me, passed out and came round to Paul Power and co slapping my face with a cold wet sponge

Thought I'd died and gone to heaven !!
