Damn, this has been happening a lot lately. The one at the baseball game, and the toddler at the Lakers game a week or two ago. Does anyone ever know what happened to the baseball one?
Yeah, I was furious when I heard about the one @ the Staples center, that shit falls squarely on parents
A 27-year-old man died after falling from an upper area at Soldier Field during the Chicago Bears game Sunday evening. The Chicago Fire Department said the man, who has not been identified, was in the columns area of Soldier Field, 1400 South Museum Campus Drive, when he fell 50 feet and landed on the roof. Police are investigating the circumstances of his death. The man was transported to Northwestern Memorial Hospital in critical condition around 5 p.m. He was pronounced dead at 5:24 p.m. Source: WLS-TV ABC Chicago
I heard Alex Flannigan tell the Football Night in America guys the story and then they completely ignored it and went back to football, like the dicks all of those guys are.
I just read that he was 23, not 27, and it was 20 feet, not 50, on sportsline, in addition to reports that witnesses said he ran up to a ledge and jumped??
it amazes me this doesnt happen more often. it sucks that it has happened this many times though because they will end up taking action on it and put up 10 foot high plexi glass walls on every level and we will have an even more shitty live experience.
Huffington Post... CHICAGO — Authorities say a man has died after falling at least 20 feet from a ledge at Soldier Stadium while attending a Chicago Bears game. Chicago police say the man fell around 4:55 p.m. Sunday during the NFL matchup between the Bears and the Philadelphia Eagles. He was pronounced dead at a local hospital. Chicago Fire Chief Joe Roccasalva says the man landed on a small rooftop on the outside of the stadium. Witnesses told authorities the man ran to a ledge and jumped. Roccasalva says the man was in his 20s, but his name hasn't been released. It's the second death in a week at a major sporting arena. On Nov. 21, a 2-year-old boy fell from a luxury box at the Staples Center during a Los Angeles Lakers game.
Yeah, I don't get it. If you want to kill yourself, why not wait until after the game. (this reads like sarcasm but I'm dead ass!)
