Claude wants his grandson Leon to play football for his Alma Mater, the Mudville Floppers. He writes a letter to Leon which says, "If you will play for the Floppers for one season, I will give you $10,000.00. (signed) Grandad."Leon doesn't particularly like football, but he tries out for the squad, makes the team, goes to every practice, and plays in 7 of the 13 games the team plays that year. His name is listed next to the number 79 on the roster.

Claude dies during the middle of the season. At the end of the season, Leon takes the letter from his Grandad to Claude's executor, Ralph, who refuses to pay, claiming this was just a gift promise and there was no consideration. Leon's mother files a suit for him in the Circuit Court.
