💨 Abstract

During a weekly general audience, Pope Leo, a Chicago native, caught a plush doll resembling himself with one hand while in his popemobile. The incident, which was captured on video, went viral, with many praising his catch and comparing it to a baseball-style maneuver. The Pope's security personnel did not intervene, despite some concerns about security. The Pope, known for his love of the Chicago White Sox, seems unfazed by public displays in his honor.
