Fan Happenings

There’s just something about NFL football that makes us want to slap on some war paint, throw back some beers and make drunken messes of ourselves. Some fans are clearly more into this than others and it’s those hardcore sports nuts that we all get our inspiration from.

Hordes of football enthusiasts took the title of crazed fans to a new level on Saturday. After #3 ranked Oklahoma State took care of #10 Oklahoma 44-10, thousands of fans rushed the field, tearing down goalposts, and leaving 13 people injured, including two in critical condition.

When Bella Swan (Kristen Stewart) had her long-awaited wedding to Edward Cullen (Robert Pattinson) in the new ‘Twilight’ movie, she wore a lovely white gown that designer Alfred Angelo recently made available to the masses for $799.

During last night’s game against the Orioles, Yankees third baseman Eric Chavez almost catches a foul ball that was headed for the crowd. When he can’t make the grab, the ball ends up hitting a woman in the front row smack in the 

Tiger Woods’ surprising struggles on the golf course continued when he failed to make the weekend cut at the PGA Championship in Atlanta. But the 14-time major champion and former top-ranked golfer can be secure in the knowledge that he still has at least one extremely passionate fan.

A man died at the Oakland A's-Texas Rangers game Thursday night in Arlington, Texas when he fell 20 feet over the left field wall while trying to catch a ball. The victim, identified as Shannon Stone, had reached over a rail to grab a foul ball thrown into the stands by Rangers' star Josh Hamilton in the second inning.
