Title: Runaway Cart Plows into People at US Football game
Post by: Alex Heartnet on December 19, 2011, 11:54:49 pm
Some disgruntled fan/employee wedged a goal marker in a stadium golf cart after the game was over.  The result was like bowling. (http://youtu.be/RFdwGJSltBM)

People did get hurt (mildly), but still...

Initially read the thread title as "Runaway Cat plows into people at US football game".

Safe to say, that would've made for a more awesome video. That said, this is still very amusing.

So the guy in the blue polo nearly manages to Brock Sampson it into the seat, actually has control of the steering wheel and instead of taking control of the vehicle and bringing it to a controlled stop he decided to jump the cart and roll?  Was there a giant cliff just out of lens he was worried about driving off of? :P

Yeah, I thought that was pretty hilarious. First guy panics and jumps, despite being in a position to stop the thing. Second guy runs to catch the cart, jumps in, and stops it like a boss.

Something heavy, bit of swing to it...

Let's get a liger.

Maybe he realised the second guy would be able to stop it more easily and he was in the way. From the position he was in, he wasn't taking control of that cart any time soon, his legs were in completely the wrong position.

I actually respect the guy more for getting himself out of the way rather than causing further problems for someone capable of solving the issue.

Yes! He'll be the mascot for Hard Light Productions. We can call him Hardy!
