Event I saw the most amazing thing ever tonight!

[3RA1N1AC]

Hah! You know, as I was tumbling over, I had an image in my head of two things:

1) this reminds me of falling down the stairs (something I've never actually done....)
2) this is gonna hurt. And it did.

Something also occurred to me about 30 minutes ago; something quite humorous...

I fell to my left. Perhaps that's a sign.

Take care of yourself! It sounds like it could have been a lot worse!

 

[Dougnsalem]

Yeah, I hope you are doing better too. Seriously. I've got a pretty vivid imagination, and with Slys OP, I pictured someone doing cartwheels down 10 rows, with all the beer and hotdogs flying in the air everywhere. You know, like on tv. (and honestly, at first I thought he joking around....) Man, it seems like someone would have grabbed you right away, and stopped your fall....

Thanks guys! The irony that a guy with the name "Jade Falcon" cannot actually fly is hilarious.

Perhaps I should call myself "Tumble Falcon". Or maybe my nickname can become "Tumble".









......I'm kidding. Please don't call me Tumble.

Uhh, I imagine Sly will come up with something catchy....

Don't feel stupid or whatever about it either. I've done MANY things, WAY worse.... Lol

LOL, Oh I'm sure there's a few people on here who would like to reserve a special name just for me....

I don't necessarily feel stupid; I was more concerned at the time that people thought I was drunk. But I don't drink.

Nevertheless, it was completely my fault. I'm too fat, with feet that are far too small for my overweight frame. Time to lose weight. My balance has never been great, but it's gotten worse over the years as I've gained weight. This was one of a few wake-up calls I've had in the past few years.

Little did you know that was God giving you a sign that you should LEAVE THE GAME NOW.

Well, they DID fall apart after half-time....and this happened during half-time.....

Hmmm....

 

[Sinobas]

Iron Falcon! Glad your not hurt. I took a spill down some concrete stairs in front of a large audience too.

Thanks bro. You're likely tougher than I am; I at least had padding. But concrete stairs sounds very painful.

I didn't fall all the way down luckily. People can get majorily f'd up falling down stairs. It's a wonder more people don't fall down those step at the arena,...

I figured out what part of the problem was at that height: the seats are so steeply stacked that the seats in front of you are literally down in the floor, so there's nothing to grab onto to steady yourself, like there would be in the lower levels, where the seats are more level with one-another. In the lower levels, when you scoot by someone, you can rest your hand on the top edge of the back row of seats in front of you to keep your balance as you move along. But no so at the upper levels. And when you have such small seats, and only a foot of room to scoot by when you're passing people, then it really is very dangerous.

I seriously wonder how many other people have taken a tumble up there. Because you're literally balancing on one foot-widths worth of floor with nothing to hang on to while brushing past hunched people.

Very dangerous indeed.

I went to the Blazer game with @Jade Falcon tonight. We had seats up in the 300 level in row K.

(Thanks for the ticket Jade!)

Anyway, halftime is almost over and I'm coming back from the bathroom. I enter from the concourse and start to walking up the stairs to row K when I look up and see someone tumbling head over heels down the seats. Bouncing, flipping, row after row, hitting the seat backs and people, continuing to tumble down rows of seats. I'm just frozen watching as this guy finally flips lands perfectly in the only empty seat in this one row.

Now my first thought was this was a fight, I mean for someone to fall down that many rows of seats they had to have been punched or shoved. But as I scan the crowd with my eyes I only see stunned people looking back down at the person who had just tumbled down multiple rows of seats. That's when I looked back at the person who had just fallen and realized....

It was @Jade Falcon! Holy fucking shit! I'm like dude, what just happened?!? Are you alright?!?! He's a bit stunned, eyes wide as saucers (which makes since because just took an hell of falls) and the first thing he says to me is, "have you seen my water bottle?"

It was amazing, surreal, shocking, I'm not sure how to describe it.

Anyway, his wrist and arm are fucked up but he soldiered through and watched the rest of the game.

Apparently the girl next to him wouldn't move when he tried to exit the row and he lost his balance.

It never ceases to amaze me what some folks will do for a seat upgrade..........

Im pretty saure this is true too because right about that time a bunch of ushers and a couple of cops came up between 301 and 332 and were looking around. And these were all BIG ushers there in anticipation of a conflict no doubt, but they didn't find anything and then left. I think they were sent over based on camera glimpses by internal security and thought something more was going on.

Man I hope your alright @Jade Falcon. Things like that often hurt far worse the day or two after. It was a pleasure meeting you, however so briefly. You know @SlyPokerDog couldn't sit and chat; had to get his beer.

Ugh....I didn't mean to cause that much of a commotion. But I'm glad they were quick to respond. I didn't see any of them.

And I'm okay, thanks. It was nice meeting you too!

Jade Falcon... No.

Jade Fallen...Yes.

 

[Orion Bailey]

I have to say Jade, you were there.... If you are going to sacrifice yourself like that, the least you could have done was taken out some of those obnoxious warriors fans that were scattered about. I would have tried to aim my tumbling with a kick the the head here and an elbow to the back here, of anything yellow. LOL
I have to give it a fail for that alone. NO warriors fans left in a stretcher? Then your wake was not large enough! You will have to try harder next time.

 

[Jade Falcon]

Jade Falcon... No.

Jade Fallen...Yes.

LMAO, oh boy....I can see this nickname getting thrown around at the next skybox meet.

LOL, well...you're the engineer, not me. Surely you'd be able to come up with a formula on how best to achieve this.

You know what's funny....Sly and I were joking, once we got seated again, about how I landed on the empty seats of two obnoxious Warrior fans, and how I couldn't wait until they were sitting there. But they were off doing something at half-time.

Just my luck. I missed my only chance to squash them.

 

[craigehlo]

Damn, hope JF is alright. I've had someone fall on me from 2 rows back up in the 300 level years ago. Dude was dazed and likely a bit drunk. It really hurt my neck for a few days. Those rows are a bit too steep.

 

[3RA1N1AC]

I think you should work a season ticket into the settlement. A skybox season ticket!

Nah.....floor seats or bust.

 

[julius]

I just imagines it was like the Family Guy episode where they show Bobby McFerrin falling down stairs making noises

 

[santeesioux]

Tsss, you took your name a bit too seriously or sumthin.

 

[dviss1]

Holy shit. That could've been so much worse. Glad you're ok. You literally could've died. Wouldn't be the worst way to go tho. At a Blazers game.

Really!?!?

She wouldn't move for you and that's how you fell?

 

[dviss1]

I don't think he wants to fall from that far...

He'd probably rather trip a referee anyway lol.

Pretty much me:

Without my beard, I even have a chin shaped like a pair of balls.

It was REALLY crammed up there. I don't think it was anyone's specific fault....but further down the isle, near the stairwell, there WERE two enormously fat people who didn't stand up when I went by. And that certainly didn't help.

But thank you. I'm alright.

 

[riverman]

Sometimes that's the way the ball bounces! Hope you are on the mend JF ....glad you didn't fall on a Blazer player at the bottom but at least you could've landed on KD!

 

[Hobbesarable]

Glad you had fun bro.



Oh, you should definitely sue. He's a total bastard.



I tripped over my own awesomeness. That's nothing you would know anything about.

Hopefully you feel better soon, partner. We need all the hardcore Blazer fans we can find rooting for our team!

 

[SlyPokerDog]

Scary. Really hope and pray everything is and will be ok.

Boring post, I know, but life is short. I'm very thankful that you appear to have escaped serious injury.

Also this proves a theory of mine, that Sly is nothing but a no good, bad luck, piece of crap, that we should all avoid like the plague

I am soooooo going to change your moniker to MediocreCartman.
