Fan Incidents

[JimmyMess]

I'll make this a general topic I guess but it started with this:

Don't know if anyone here has said anything about it. But the other week when Lesnar destroyed Mark Henry, he tossed the monitors and one went off the camera shot and a few seconds later I heard the whole crowd make an "OHHHHH" and I immediately assumed it went into the audience.

The WWE never acknowledged it (and for good reason)

But I was just watching Botchamania and they definitely showed the other angle where it made a bounce and bonked some sap in the crowd.

What could the potential ramifications of that be? And have any of you ever seen something like that happen, on TV or in person?

[Damian Rey]

I would think one's ticket would double as a waiver of liability.

[Sepholio]

Absolutely nothing will happen. It is akin to going to a baseball game and getting drilled by a line drive.

[James Steele]

I think if anything like that happens, they take them to the back and make it up to them with free shit and then have them sign one of those "letters of indemnification".

[JimmyMess]

Steele's makes the most sense to me.

But I understand where Seph is comingfrom, although while foul balls are a part of the game of baseball, tv monitors and heavy foreign objects are not supposed to fly into the crowd in wwe.

[Emperor Smeat]

Similar to the Punk incident, nothing major although the WWE probably would offer some free merchandise. Lesnar probably got told to tone down on the recklessness of his "beast" mode to prevent future incidents.

[JimmyMess]

I mean in his defense the monitor did land on the ground, it just happen to take a weird bounce and fly into the crowd

When I was at this event a few years back, a piece of the the table on fire went into the crowd and set some guy's hat on fire. They need to be more careful and go back to rasslin and not so much sports rassletainment.

I read the thread title expecting it to be about stuff like this...

I know a guy who got his arm broken in the OTHER ECW show that was held in Augusta (there was 2, the other being the infamous December to Dismember PPV). It was broken by a flying Spike Dudley. Anyway, he was a mark and was happy to meet his favorite wrestlers backstage after the injury. Even better because if he had sued, he wouldn't have gotten any money.

I like how Malenko and Psicosis start to help then see the ref has got it and go back to their match.

Last year at the March PSP Spring bash show.

There is a fan ,Johnny,who is mentally challenged. Him and his mom are front row at almost every show. Well the main event was PSP champ Luke hawx vs Calvin Rose. They were brawling right in front of Johnny. Rose is the heel. Johnny jumps up and punches Rose in the back of the head hard. Rose quickly turned around but saw it was Johnny and didn't do anything.

After the show I saw Hawx and the two owners talking to Johnny and his mother. Letting him know he isn't allowed to punch the wrestlers.

It wasn't long ago at all when the CM Punk fan incident happened...definitely still remember that.

[Swiss Ultimate]

Mass Transit counts I'd say.

I feel like the only times I ever saw that shit happen was in the 90s. I can't remember a real recent incident at all.

I always wondered what the fuck those drunk idiots thought was going to happen.

[Vastardikai]

I'm sure at some point the thought "This is gonna be so cool!" crossed their minds.

I'm also certain one of them thought "Fuck, I can't breathe!" during their act.
