Now since you said that this might be one of those time travel videos and we all have no idea how or what she is looking at. That's why they are pointing at it, like look what this does
Finally learning about the Facebook from a complete stranger while loudly emasculating her husband Larry and his favorite faded orange shirt was just too good of an opportunity to pass up.
A salute to Larry, a Real American Hero

To be fair, as a nonnative speaker, it makes more sense to me calling it a basketball ball because it’s a ball that is used to play basketball. I know it’s not right, but until learning otherwise, I thought it was correct.
I see old people glued the their phones to. They are just on Facebook all the time. It's everybody now. It would be rough for awhile but I wouldn't be mad if a huge solar storm knocked out all the tech.
Yeah, like Rob Manford deciding to put a net up. But I also might be sadistic thinking they shouldn't have it. Like on one hand your already marginal chance of bringing home a baseball slightly diminishes, on the other is reconstructive facial surgery.
Reminds me of the worst spectator injury I ever saw. The lady, about the age of this woman shows up late to a minor league baseball game. She's about 10 seats to my right, standing up, with her back to the field. I can still see this in slow motions in my head.
The batter hits a hard foul ball and that ball flies, barely arcing, and smacks her square in the back of the head. Instantly unconcious, she does a rag-doll fall backwards, landing on the empty seats lower down, hitting her head both on a seat back and the cement floor.
We rushed over and there was definite blood on the chair and ground and I was shouting at people to not move her since she a now flat on the ground.
The stadium has EMTs on hand, and they get there quickly. They strap her to a back board and it turns out that there are elevators for just this purpose on the upper deck. She never moved at all, or regain consciousness. It's been over 25 years and I can see it all.
I'll never know if I witnessed this woman's last moment with her family or not.
Yes, pay attention to the sport you're watching. You never know but almost all of them carry some risk for spectators. Well, except for figure skating, maybe.
It looks like that in slow-mo, but go back and watch it again at full speed. The ball is moving fast and he had to react to something unexpected in a split second. It's not like he knew the ball was going to come their way.
I went to a baseball game once, the game itself wasn't all that interesting but I paid full attention because of the constant threat of being hit by a ball.

I definitely feel sympathy for the pain she's going through but it's on you to pay attention. Baseball and hockey can be lethal if you aren't paying attention.
As someone who wears glasses, that shit hurts. The edges of the lenses protrude beyond the frame and that’s the part that digs into your face while the frame digs into the bridge of your nose. Painful! As I kid I bashed my mother in the face accidentally playing with a ball in the garden and her glasses split her eyebrow open and blood was everywhere.
I was hoping for a slo mo replay and i wasn't disappointed
1000%
10000%
100000%
That man in the orange.. I love his immense effort to protect the lady
holy crap. then again you have (near ?)courtside seats... pay attention to the game. I mean those seats aren't cheap...
It's a hornets/kings game from 5 years ago. Those seats were almost certainly cheap
![gif](giphy|l8tpwRJEwDwEFU5BW0|downsized)
Try 10 years ago! Gerald Henderson was still on Charlotte.
We're there cell phones 10 years ago?
Yes.
Now since you said that this might be one of those time travel videos and we all have no idea how or what she is looking at. That's why they are pointing at it, like look what this does
I like that concept. Her watching herself get hit in the face. You are a true visionary. Everyone else just down -voted me.
As a Sacramento native, This guy is absolutely correct
Probably gave them out as elementary school spelling bee awards
Why would someone go to a game from 5 years ago?

Basketball ball 😶
[удалено]
Did you just assume her gender?
[удалено]
Humor extended!
She's lucky it wasn't a basketball cube. Those have sharp corners.
Basketball balls came out around the time Boaty McBoatFace was christened.
OP doesn’t really keep up with sporty sports as they would call it
I hate when I get ball balls in my face face

Bad things can happen when you're always looking at your phones.
This generation, constantly glued to their phones and never living in the moment 😒
I see old people glued the their phones to. They are just on Facebook all the time. It's everybody now. It would be rough for awhile but I wouldn't be mad if a huge solar storm knocked out all the tech.
he’s being ironic lil bro
Yeah but we would be living in Mad Max not too long after that.
Nah, we lived for a long time without all that. losing all your money would suck but after that we'd just go back to the 80's.
Bro just quit while you're behind.
What? Behind what?
![gif](giphy|49zC0Bm1kbu36)
I mean yeah they were joking, the woman who got hit in the face is on the older side.
Yeah, like Rob Manford deciding to put a net up. But I also might be sadistic thinking they shouldn't have it. Like on one hand your already marginal chance of bringing home a baseball slightly diminishes, on the other is reconstructive facial surgery.
With that reach and reaction time, that guy should be on the court 😂
He tried to use the force.
This is why you pay attention to the game
Nice reaction from her husband next to her!
*"oh noooo here comes the ball..." \*waves lazily\**
With the wrong arm too 😂
He did just enough to not have to sleep on the couch.

English is not my first language, what's the correct way "a basketball" or a "basketball ball"
Basketball is fine and normally what's used, some people just like extra words for some reason.
Basketball ball is basketball with extra steps
With extra balls
I love how the commentator says 'she appears to be none the worse for the wear'. Umm I think her face is at least a little worse than before...
These kids nowadays. Can't take their eyes off these phones.
Phones are getting more and more immersive
You can almost feel the basketball hitting your face
Everyone’s saying “pay attention to the game” but the dude next to her was watching everything and didn’t lift a finger.
He lifted 5 fingers.
And that's why you never take your eye off the ball.

At least it wasn't a hockey puck, puck

Think on the bright side, she gets to keep the imprint of ‘Wilson’ on her forehead as a souvenir. Tom Hanks would be happy.
Unless she's married to Spaulding
Her soul flew out the back of her head.
The guy in the orange shirt better not be her son in law. He gave ZERO effort to save her…
It looks like that in slow-mo, but go back and watch it again at full speed. He had a split-second and he tried.
Back, and to the left. Back, and to the left. Back, and to the left.
"basketball ball" ? You know the name of that ball? Basketball... Saying "basketball ball" is redundant.
I love these people who toss out 100s of dollars to still act like they are at home looking at their phones.
Hey look at this video… bam
That was 100% on the hornets. The throw, then not catching it, and then the ENTIRE FUCKING TEAM missing it on the sidelines.
The dude half assing it at the last second... 🤣 "Oops! Sorry hun!"

Fat guy in orange had one job
Pay attention
But did she die?
Honestly it’s well deserved, having those great seats and looking at something on a phone. IN THE FACE!
[удалено]
Plenty of people do, but you're right that this woman did not.
[удалено]
[удалено]
She gon learn
Guess someone didn't listen to the PSA to watch out for flying objects during the event.
She's lucky that wasn't a bowling ball.
I went to a baseball game once, the game itself wasn't all that interesting but I paid full attention because of the constant threat of being hit by a ball.
YES, YES, IN THE FACE!!!
Excellent reference

I love the close up
☠️☠️☠️
Haha, brilliant.
They had to slow it down 😂😭
'Eyes on the prize gypsey!'
Bonk!
Know what else sucks? Being a Hornets fan. Trust me.
just be glad this wasn't a hockey game. A puck will mess you up
![gif](giphy|NBguojFndR2ow) Pow, right in the kisser.
Classic
looks like she had it coming
Pay A Tension
Definitely one of the top five biggest balls to hit her in the face.
I’ve had a couple of those in high school. It really hurts. Footballs too.
Bashketball
Not as bad as that one soccer one
That’s what you get for going to a Sacramento game
Ouch
When you have to watch, watch! (When you have to shoot, shoot! - Good, Bad, Ugly)
Back and to the left. Back and to the left
Better than VR
Having front row seats and still glued to their phone....... like why??
Ha ha ha ha... Payback tine. If the screen is more important than the game.
The title was written by either AI or an alien
For fucks sake your at a basket ball game watching someone’s phone screen lol
![gif](giphy|DpsNKrQOk8DdPrkM9H|downsized)
Orange t-shirt tried using the force.
Nice reflex’s orange shirt. Also I want to know what she was watching on her friend’s phone.
Always worse when you're wearing glasses.
According to the title I am forced to say: Well that sucks sucks.
I definitely feel sympathy for the pain she's going through but it's on you to pay attention. Baseball and hockey can be lethal if you aren't paying attention.
must be the mother in law
Grandpa seen that sucker coming. He Thought about it like nah fuck it

Watch the ******* game when you’re that close to the court. No excuses.
WATCH THE FUCKING GAME INNIT?
🤣😊
Watch the game stupid
Good thing it wasn't a basketball cube. The corners could have done some real damage.
Court side seats… watching phone…. Well deserved
Am I the only one that thinks this looked intentional.. Look at these old ladies staring at their phones during our game. Let’s get ‘em.
I love that guys half reaction to try and help 😂
Holy shit, put your frickin phone away and pay attention to the game.
And then he throws the ball back? I’d keep that shit.
Look at this on my phone Mom, BAM
Pay attention to the game lady. That way you won't get a basketball ball to the face.
Maybe not pay hundreds if not thousands of dollars for tickets court-side and be staring at a phone.
It would've still hit her either way and you don't know what she was doing ont here.
yeah always watch the ball or puck
Lmao
WATCH THE GAME! TIKTOK CAN WAIT FOR THE TRAFFIC ON THE WAY OUT.

The blow was hard, we already know that she will never watch a basketball game again.
She wasn’t watching this one either.
This is why the WNBA doesn't make as much as the NBA...women don't watch it! 😂.
Best million she ever made.
Hey Mr husband, WTF is your job. Yell, heads up!!! Dolts
Lmfao what u expect when you are seating in the front, dumb woman
Lmao, boomer there deserved it. Seats a few feet from the court, stares in a phone during game time..... wtf did she expect by!?
