in the Back Bay. I was on my lunch break one day, and some dude was just throwing money out of a window on Boylston. It was weird.

he was with Tampa at that time, possibly out of the game altogether (summer '13). However, I was at McGreevys on night during Napoli's post-WS run there.

Me too! Except I was on my way to work and it came raining down. So either 9:05 or 10:05 AM, haha.

One of my coworkers was dating someone from another office (5th floor) -- she said one of the partners or higher ups there likes to throw cash out the window, just for fun. Their office was evidently way more fun than ours.

that I was on mid-morning coffee run and not lunch, could have been the same person. This was also the summer of '13, right after the Marathon bombings, so some fun was very much needed around there at that time.

That sounds COMPLETELY and UNQUESTIONABLY GREAT! That was literally my dream the entire time I was living in the Boston area and working multiple shitty jobs. One day I found $40 on the sidewalk in the South End and almost kissed the disgusting garbage and dog shit strewn sidewalk for helping me make rent.

So why were the officers collecting money? Keeping those dangerous bills out of the hands of citizens? :)

$10,000 was thrown into the street. Police managed to recover the whole $7,000 and bring the $3,000 back to the station where the $1,000 unclaimed currency awaits claim.

Because finders keepers isnt actual law. Found money (and other property) is required to be turned in and a police report generated. The findee can claim it if it isnt otherwise claimed in a month.
