Seems the past few weeks too many people are falling off of NFL stadiums. It's like this is the new planking or something.

First a woman jumped from the 3rd level of the Raiders stadium this week to a lower level which was a 45 foot drop. Apparently it was some suicide jump and she also injured a guy below who tried to catch her.

Last week a Buffalo fan fell 30 feet onto another fan sending both to the hospital. Dude was trying to slide down the railing. Really man?

Here a man hospitalized after falling through riser at Javelina Stadium.

Just today a man was taken to the University of Maryland Shock Trauma Center after falling and hitting his head at M&T Bank Stadium during the Ravens-Jets game Sunday. He is set to have brain surgery.


Just last year a fan died when he tumbled over a railing at the Georgia Dome and struck a man below during a college game.

To me this is getting pretty bad, maybe stop serving so much beer and sending people to climb 100 feet up in the air. New rule only the lower seats get beer. Nosebleed section gets harnesses.
