You didn't get into a fight, fall over the railing, and get taken off on a stretcher did you?

I was watching the UCLA/Oregon game late last night. A UCLA player was taken off on a stretcher. Simultaneously, fans in the front row got in a fight. A few fell over onto the field and then one of the fans was taken off on a stretcher.

hahahahahahahah

lol no it wasn't me. But I saw the guy get taken off a stretcher.

Apparently his injury was very serious. I guess some guy got in a fight when a drunk dude pushed him over and he fell on his neck. They were saying he could be paralyzed for the rest of his life.

Wow, that's awful.

Yeah terrible stuff, here's the story posted on C4Q by someone... My facts were a bit off, but still pretty bad news:

Oct 12, 2008 2:42:45 GMT -5 @duckfan4life said:

This is exactly what happened, as I am about 15-20 ft down/from the men involved in the accident behind the UCLA bench.

Two men, one younger maybe 20-22 and the older around 23-24, got into a scuffle over a seating arrangment in the front row on the 25 yard line. The bigger and older of the two, attacked the younger male, forcing them both to there feet.

As they scuffled and threw punches, the bigger of the two grabbed the other and proceeded to move toward the edge of the grass toward the drop off. They then toppled over and landed on the ground below, a 6-7 ft drop. The bigger male landed on top of the younger one, which landed on his neck/head.

My father, a nurse at Sacred Heart, ran over to help the younger guy. The bigger of the two was tackled and arrested immediatlely, but the younger male was unconcious and proceded to go into a seizure on the ground where he lay. His family and friends rushed the police officers trying to get to there family member and attack the other male involved. The police officers then let my father through and he then began processing what happened to the injured fan.

So far, all my father knows is that the injured man went into a seizure and was non-responsive to any medical personnel there. He had a hematoma (a round ball of either blood or fluid) on the back of his neck. He says it did not look good, and seriously believes he may be paralyzed from the incident since he landed on his neck. He will get updates from the hospital later tonight, and I will update this thread with whatever he tells me.


Sad day to be a duck fan,
