Tragedy struck in San Fran today just after kickoff at about 1:30 p.m. in the 49ers’ 34-28 win over Green Bay. Authorities and multiple witnesses reported the man appeared to be intoxicated before he fell to a sidewalk.
The accident was the second reported at an NFL event. Earlier that day a railing collapsed at the Colts’ game against the Raiders in Indianapolis injuring two fans who were leaning against the barrier above the tunnel leading to Oakland’s locker room.
After learning of the incident SF representatives released this statement:
“We would like to express our deepest condolences to the family during this difficult time,”.
I would like to take this time to express to our listeners to please take precaution at social events especially when consuming alcohol. Have fun but maintain responsibility to ensure your safety.
