So yesterday, at an Texas Astro game, a fan was reaching for a foul ball that a player threw to him and he slipped and fell over the railing to his death. The man was Shannon Stone,37 or 38 years old. He was at the game with his 6 year old son and was reaching for a foul ball, when he leaned too far. Right now the family needs prayers to help them get through this hard time, please pray. 2 articals on what happened http://sports.yahoo.com/mlb/news?slug=j ... ath_070811

Yes they need our prayers. More details: It was at the Rangers game. And after he fell the only thing he was worried about was his son.

He survived the fall and then died? Wow that must have been so hard for his son. Definitely praying for them.KF wrote:Yes they need our prayers. More details: It was at the Rangers game. And after he fell the only thing he was worried about was his son.
I heard another fan at a different game almost did the same thing a few days later. Lucky for him, his friends caught him before he fell all the way.

I have been praying for this man's family as soon as I found out. This is such a tragedy. I can't possibly imagine how his six year old son feels.
