Minor UI glitch: The button to award a bounty is active on a deleted answer. Clicking on it results in the "THIS CANNOT BE UNDONE!" alert.

After confirming, I get the following error though:

So not a fatal bug, but still better not show the +50 next to deleted posts.

    99% sure it won't go through, but for the sake of the 1% that it will, guess better not try. :) Commented May 6, 2015 at 12:21

    Clearly the message should be changed to "THIS CANNOT BE DONE!" :)

    I too got puzzled by this, as I awarded a bounty on the most upvoted open/unanswered question ever, and it has a bunch of deleted questions, all with the blue button seemingly allowing me to award the bounty to a deleted answer. My original guess was: if a deleted a. is so good it deserves a bounty, it will get undeleted, right?
