    Seriously? They're going to keep playing the game while tending to a guy who fell out of the upper deck? Hope he's OK.

    I still remember when that guy fell out of the upper deck during that Cleveland-Buffalo playoff game in Cleveland around 1988 or so. He wasn't so lucky ...

    If George Bush was still President of The Rangers they would have never stopped the game.

    Good thing the Rangers are halfway decent, else the dude would've landed on a bunch of empty seats.

    In Cleveland, no one would have even noticed for a few hours.

    Rangers broadcasters are making it sound like he fell more than 20 feet.

    Too high? What does that mean, too high?

    They don't show the fall. Just the reactions.

    Josh Lewin just announced the fan is responsive and moving all extremities at a Fort Worth hospital, and four of the fans he landed on are being treated at the ballpark. All should be OK.

    He may have fallen out of one of the suites and not the upper deck. Still a long drop though. Can't believe he's not dead.

    Having been to that ballpark many times, I'm having trouble imagining this. Assuming it's on the first base side, falling out of the suites would be like... 10-15 feet depending on how far forward he went. But falling out of the second deck would be like... 30 or maybe more feet and seem, well, not really survivable.
