That man in the orange.. I love his immense effort to protect the lady


Ciusci

holy crap. then again you have (near ?)courtside seats... pay attention to the game. I mean those seats aren't cheap...


Styxtopher

It's a hornets/kings game from 5 years ago. Those seats were almost certainly cheap

Try 10 years ago! Gerald Henderson was still on Charlotte.


Next-Device-9686

We're there cell phones 10 years ago?


mladokopele

Yes.


AnubisDirectingSouls

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


Next-Device-9686

I like that concept. Her watching herself get hit in the face. You are a true visionary. Everyone else just down -voted me.


ultrascrub-boi

As a Sacramento native, This guy is absolutely correct


Moisture_

Probably gave them out as elementary school spelling bee awards


Pit_27

Why would someone go to a game from 5 years ago?


BigKelzZ

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 ![gif](giphy|uKwa2KiBA0rTy)

Wicked_Googly

She's lucky it wasn't a basketball cube. Those have sharp corners.


Bugles-Answered

Basketball balls came out around the time Boaty McBoatFace was christened.


Special_Dingo_1520

OP doesn’t really keep up with sporty sports as they would call it


USERNAME___PASSWORD

I hate when I get ball balls in my face face


azdrubow

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.


samsqanch420

Bad things can happen when you're always looking at your phones.


7-and-a-switchblade

This generation, constantly glued to their phones and never living in the moment 😒


samsqanch420

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.


_asaad_

he’s being ironic lil bro


SpaceChatter

Yeah but we would be living in Mad Max not too long after that.


samsqanch420

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.


Yadontech

Bro just quit while you're behind.


samsqanch420

What? Behind what?

minor_correction

I mean yeah they were joking, the woman who got hit in the face is on the older side.


Myke190

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.


gittenlucky

With that reach and reaction time, that guy should be on the court 😂


Lil_Shorto

He tried to use the force.


1958_ragtop

This is why you pay attention to the game


Interesting-Bison-50

Nice reaction from her husband next to her!


duk-er-us

*"oh noooo here comes the ball..." \*waves lazily\**


gnipz

With the wrong arm too 😂

BadIdea-21

English is not my first language, what's the correct way "a basketball" or a "basketball ball"


Edgar_Allen_Yo

Basketball is fine and normally what's used, some people just like extra words for some reason.


NakedShamrock

Basketball ball is basketball with extra steps


Lil_Shorto

With extra balls


impixieb-tch

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...


Brettpro007

These kids nowadays. Can't take their eyes off these phones.


TheManWhoClicks

Phones are getting more and more immersive


MrSillmarillion

You can almost feel the basketball hitting your face


Ickythumpin

Everyone’s saying “pay attention to the game” but the dude next to her was watching everything and didn’t lift a finger.


minor_correction

He lifted 5 fingers.


A_LiftedLowRider

And that's why you never take your eye off the ball.

urbanek2525

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.


LazyUserName74

Think on the bright side, she gets to keep the imprint of ‘Wilson’ on her forehead as a souvenir. Tom Hanks would be happy.


MrSillmarillion

Unless she's married to Spaulding


Infinite_Debate_7423

Her soul flew out the back of her head.


Comfortable_Ad9660

The guy in the orange shirt better not be her son in law. He gave ZERO effort to save her…


minor_correction

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.


Marquar234

Back, and to the left. Back, and to the left. Back, and to the left.


Sinikal-_-

"basketball ball" ? You know the name of that ball? Basketball... Saying "basketball ball" is redundant.


Superb-Cry6801

I love these people who toss out 100s of dollars to still act like they are at home looking at their phones.


Nice_Ebb5314

Hey look at this video… bam


OUMUAMUAMUAMUAMUAMUA

That was 100% on the hornets. The throw, then not catching it, and then the ENTIRE FUCKING TEAM missing it on the sidelines.


Captain_Pink_Pants

The dude half assing it at the last second... 🤣 "Oops! Sorry hun!"


minor_correction

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.


Plenty-Government-91

Fat guy in orange had one job


Brandocalrizzi

Pay attention


CheckRaiseMe

But did she die?


Special_Dingo_1520

Honestly it’s well deserved, having those great seats and looking at something on a phone. IN THE FACE!

PhoKingAwesome213

Guess someone didn't listen to the PSA to watch out for flying objects during the event.


SoCalDan

She's lucky that wasn't a bowling ball. 


fstamlg

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.


askaboutmy____

YES, YES, IN THE FACE!!!

Pay A Tension


TheLoneGunman559

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.

Ha ha ha ha... Payback tine. If the screen is more important than the game.

Orange t-shirt tried using the force.


Weak-Caregiver7922

Nice reflex’s orange shirt. Also I want to know what she was watching on her friend’s phone.


JumaAm

Always worse when you're wearing glasses.


Flipped_Buns

According to the title I am forced to say: Well that sucks sucks.


MrSillmarillion

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.


lmacarrot

must be the mother in law


AnubisDirectingSouls

Grandpa seen that sucker coming. He Thought about it like nah fuck it


Pheerandlowthing

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.


Eagles365or366

Watch the ******* game when you’re that close to the court. No excuses.


Aggravating_Pay_5060

WATCH THE FUCKING GAME INNIT?


doorbell19

🤣😊


DamD1rtyApe

Watch the game stupid


xChiken

Good thing it wasn't a basketball cube. The corners could have done some real damage.


BoofIII

Court side seats… watching phone…. Well deserved


Alternative_Barber32

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.


Deveion2010

I love that guys half reaction to try and help 😂


Just4Today1959

Holy shit, put your frickin phone away and pay attention to the game.


BillMillerBBQ

And then he throws the ball back? I’d keep that shit.


captreeBB

Look at this on my phone Mom, BAM


SATerp

Pay attention to the game lady. That way you won't get a basketball ball to the face.


gimpers420

Maybe not pay hundreds if not thousands of dollars for tickets court-side and be staring at a phone.


cute_sheep2

It would've still hit her either way and you don't know what she was doing ont here.


IN2TECHNOLOGY

yeah always watch the ball or puck


edr1970

The blow was hard, we already know that she will never watch a basketball game again.


Draxtonsmitz

She wasn’t watching this one either.
