here ya go, folks...the citation for the law review article about who owned the barry bonds 73rd home run baseball. [it was caught by a fan named popov (to what degree the catch had been completed became the legal issue), that fan was attacked by a group of fans, and another fan, hayashi, emerged with the ball. interestingly, the author of the article was ultimately an expert witness for popov when the case went to trial! [a trial which was completed after the article was published, so i had to do some digging to find out that the court decided the catch was incomplete (whatever that means) and the ball should be sold and the profits equally divided].
23 Cardozo L. Rev. 1609, Paul Finkelman
