A 25-year-old man suffered critical head injuries after falling about 150 feet down a stairwell at Turner Field during the eighth inning of Wednesday night's game between the Atlanta Braves and New York Mets.
Atlanta Police Department spokesman Ronald Campbell said the man was taken to Grady Hospital in Atlanta.Advertisement Braves spokesman Brad Hainje said the man apparently fell from the club level to the landing on the stairwell on the field level.
Campbell said the man, whose name was not released, may have been sliding down the hand rails when he fell.

That sucks. He was probably trying to look cool in front of his friends. Hopefully he taught his friends and a few thousand others how cool it isn't to take stupid chances with your life. If so, maybe, just maybe, his death will save the lives of others by preventing them from doing something stupid like this themselves.

8th inning? just after the beer cut off time. Hopefully someone will learn a lesson from this.
