Another Fan Death

A fan died after falling off an escalator at Turner Field, much like this tragedy earlier in the year at Shea.

Alcohol may have been involved, Campbell said.

Hayes was reported to have been sliding on a handrail in the bottom of the 8th inning when he slipped off. He was rushed to Grady Memorial Hospital, where he was pronounced dead.

My thoughts go out to his family and friends. There's no excuse for this. Our moms told us not to play on the escalator, and we should remember their words of wisdom.

Couple with this murder after a Giants game, and it hasn't been a good year for fans.
