Guest UHCoog14 Posted July 8, 2011 Report Posted July 8, 2011 Absolutely terrible. The most sickening aspect is that the little boy in the red Rangers jersey was his son.NEVER take one second of your life for granted.May God give his son and his family comfort.

Very tragic.
bullets13 Posted July 9, 2011 Report Posted July 9, 2011 The man who died was a firefighter in the area. What's crazy is that one year and one day before, another Dallas-area firefighter was hurt after falling 30 feet trying to catch a foul ball at the Ballpark in Arlington.
OldNedDog Posted July 9, 2011 Report Posted July 9, 2011 A lady fell from one deck to another the first year (I think) "The Ballpark @ Arlington" opened. Seems like it wouldn't hurt to raise the railings a bit.

Horrible accident that I hope never happens again.
