As [Deacon] Jim lay dying, we brought holy water from the hospital chapel to his bedside, along with a borrowed deacon stole and a crucifix. We placed the crucifix on Jim’s chest. My daughter, Jennifer, and I cupped Jim’s hand to hold the holy water while I pronounced the words of baptism, and we guided Jim’s hand to pour the holy water onto Matthew’s forehead.Read the whole thing at Acts of the Apostasy

Thanks for the link, BC. Crazy, eh?
Your bowl win is your only consolation? Maybe they need to start a Baptism Bowl. Winners get a valid Baptism.
