Aye. Like a scotchman would ever discard a penny like that....
Long after the game and the cameras left he went and dug them up I expect.

Reminds me of the Winter Olympics in Salt Lake City. They brought in Canadians to do the ice surface for the hockey. These guys buried a one dollar canadian coin at center ice for good luck. After winning the gold medal game the Canadian players dug out the coin. Yeah Canadians are pretty tight too.

It is now in the Hockey Hall of Fame. It was an amusing sidelight of those games.

There's rumours going around it was a magnet and he put one in the match ball. When he realised which way we were kicking he dug it up quick. :wink:
