Honest Kid is Awesome

So some 11 year old kid made a $50 000 shot at a hockey game, but did so on behalf of his twin brother. He's admitted it and says he feels bad about taking the money. The company that fronted the cash may yet pay him though, which would be classy as well.

That kid is a winner whether or not he gets the money.

$50,000?!?

Kid's a moral hearted dumbass.

I just saw the latest on this on the news. The whole situation is really innocuous. It was the father who told the brother to take the shot just because the one kid was out of the building when his name was called. Even if it was totally intentional, I'm not sure of the moral quandary. What difference does it make? It's not like the other twin was Wayne Gretzky... it was an equally skilled same-age boy. Also, apparently it wasn't the kid who decided to come clean, it was the dad again.

That is one awesome shot! It could be pure luck, but like his twin brother (who according to the father has the skill) got some talent there

No money for kid, smaller amount to charity in their name.
