The Tampa Bay Buccaneers fan decided to give back Tom Brady's 600th career touchdown ultimately missing out a chance to cash in on the big moment.

Sports memorabilia experts say the ball is worth a “minimum $500,000” at auction but St. Pete High alum Byron Kennedy didn't give it back right away. He started negotiations at the beginning of the commercial break and when the game was back live they were still talking about getting the ball back to the Buccaneers. He ended up giving it back for a replacement ball and $1,000 at the Bucs official merchandise store.

Tom Brady became the 1st player in NFL history to throw 600 touchdown passes so the ball is very valuable. Although Tony Romo suggested he give them man a date night with Gisele.
