mannc Posted November 18, 2013 Posted November 18, 2013 It was actually captured by the broadcast toward the end of the game. I hope all involved are OK. https://vine.co/v/htj9ndMgJte Seems to be incontrovertible evidence that this guy is an idiot and/or was extremely intoxicated.
SmokinES3 Posted November 18, 2013 Posted November 18, 2013 Seems to be incontrovertible evidence that this guy is an idiot and/or was extremely intoxicated. Agreed...
Not at the table Karlos Posted November 18, 2013 Posted November 18, 2013 it looks like he tried to fall.
thebug Posted November 18, 2013 Posted November 18, 2013 Not only is this guy sliding down......but it looks like his hands are in his pockets?

DC Tom Posted November 18, 2013 Posted November 18, 2013 Guys, none of you are perfect, and none of you have never made a mistake. I really hope they are both ok. These guys are human beings. How you can be so flippant about someone who possibly could have lost their legs? I'll say a prayer for both guys. One may have been stupid drinking too much or not. That is a leap. What if it were your son who was drunk as a dingbat at 19 yrs old? You'd be fine with him as a paraplegic for the rest of his life? If you answer honestly, you know you would not be ok with it. I'd love to hear from a guy who would be really happy with his boy being in a wheelchair for the rest of his life even if he was stupid. If you respond your fine with it, your lying! Of course we feel even worse for someone in the second level who might have been the recipient, but don't be so flippent on this issue. It is very superficial. I hope they are both ok, and if the guy abive was drunk, and we don't know that, I hope he learned a lesson and is ok. I was really disgusted by some of these responses. I guess I'm wrong for actually thinking this through. It doesn't mean I don't have a problem with consequences, but a paraplegic? It was actually captured by the broadcast toward the end of the game. I hope all involved are OK. https://vine.co/v/htj9ndMgJte Having seen the video, I can tell you conclusively that if it were any son of mine, he'd get no !@#$ing sympathy whatsoever. Sure I'd visit him in the hospital...and remind him, every visit, that he's there because he's stupid.

Badasss Posted November 18, 2013 Posted November 18, 2013 I feel sorry for the guy because one dumb decision might change the rest of his life. But it's easier to feel bad for the innocent bystander that also got hurt.
stinky finger Posted November 18, 2013 Posted November 18, 2013 I wish a tried and true QB would fall into our laps.

Punch Posted November 18, 2013 Posted November 18, 2013 That really doesn't look like "broadcast" quality video. Although I guess I could be wrong......hmmm, maybe in honor of the 50th anniversary of JFK's killing, CBS gave out Bell & Howell 8mm cameras to a few staffers and had them shoot some footage at the Ralph. Seriously though, I hope the kid that got impacted is not seriously hurt, and comes through it to full recovery. It's an extreme zoom in on a TV screen from a cell phone camera. See Carey Bender's deadspin link above your post for a clearer view of the broadcast.
John in Jax Posted November 18, 2013 Posted November 18, 2013 Looks like it happened at the start of the 2nd qtr. Since I live far away from Buffalo, and haven't attended a game at the Ralph in a long while, isn't being drunk at the start of the 2nd qtr. a little early for that kind of display?

I'm not kidding
FergusontoButler Posted November 18, 2013 Posted November 18, 2013 how the hell did somebody actually see that on the broadcast.
bbb Posted November 18, 2013 Posted November 18, 2013 Seems to be incontrovertible evidence that this guy is an idiot and/or was extremely intoxicated. After further review, your call stands. @Deadspin) Jeff Savidge @JeffSavidge Follow @SalSports @Deadspin he landed 5 feet from me. Right across the row. He acted like nothing happened while the guy he fell on was hurt bad.
SF Bills Fan Posted November 18, 2013 Posted November 18, 2013 Man- the old Aud I thought I was always going over in that place. It was steep.
