New York Yankees Impressed by 10-Year-Old Who Threw Water Balloon at Politician
August 4, 2023
Cellphone video captured the moment a politician was hit in the head with a water balloon thrown by a 10-year-old girl. The incident happened at a New York July 4th parade, where tossing water balloons is a long-standing tradition in the town of Stuart Manor. When Long Island's Nassau County Executive Bruce Blakeman dried off, he tweeted: "The Mets & the Yankees could certainly use her!" The little girl with the amazing aim is Alexa Cardona. She managed to throw the water balloon from more than 30 yards.
