A man fell to his death during the 49ers game Sunday, tumbling 20 feet from the upper concourse to a concrete walkway at Monster Park.

The identity of the man was being withheld, pending notification of his family and an investigation by a medical examiner.

Lisa Lang, the 49ers vice president of communications, said that the San Francisco police department has ruled the death an accident after interviewing witnesses.

"It's a very sad day for all of us," Lang said.

The fall occurred between 2 and 3 p.m., Lang said, when a fan toppled over a wall near a concession stand. The wall is four feet high and six inches thick.

The fan went over the wall and landed on a ramp leading to the mezzanine level, Lang said.

That sucks. RIP.

I remember a few years back at Arrowhead a fan fell from the upper deck and fell to the lower level.

Now watch his family sue.

The 49ers are so bad......it's killing their fans.

I'm still getting douchechills from the footage of that skateboarder falling on the halfpipe. Glad he survived.

RIP in this case.

didnt this happen in seattle a few years back?

What??

Yep. Dude fell on some young teenage gal. Both of them were fine, amazingly.

RIP

a 4 foot wall?

Suprised it doesnt happen more often. Last year I saw some idiot fall off the circual ramp at Arrowhead lucky for him the Gates BBQ tent saved him.

Dude stole my idea for the Titans game!!!! but no really that sucks. RIP

Hell, that sucks. I'd do the same if the Chiefs were that bad..............Wait a minute.

Actually the upper concourse outside wall at arrowhead is the same.

Yep, that was in 2001 against the Steelers. The guy fell over the railing and landed on a 10 year old kid just to the right of us. The guy was stupid drunk and I'm amazed that the kid wasn't seriously hurt.

Would it be a really bad thing to hope that this particular S.F. fan is known nationwide as THE Barry Bonds?

RIP

I wonder if he was sitting on the wall or if he was very tall. toppling over just doesnt seem likely.

WOW

This isn't the same incident, but at last years' Broncos game some guy jumped off of the top level of the spiral walkway through the canvas roof of the Gates stand in the lower level, but seemingly survived. There's a thread about it buried on here somewhere.

I know there probably wasn't a lot of people at the game but damn, can't we narrow down this timeline a little bit. Did he lay down there for a while until someone found him?

This happened this year at Qualcomm too. No word on if he survived.

Crazy these things really happen.

In this case it was a drunk fan doing a handstand on the side "rail" of the spiral ramp.

I'm guessing the security was running the Cover 2 defense yesterday

The little people who live beneath the stadiums do this.

One of those stunts that starts with "... here hold my beer." ROFL

That was in section 321. The dude was drunk as hell and dropped his wallet or cell phone or something. When he bent over to pick it up he passed out and rolled over everyone in the five rows below him. My brother was one of the rollees, he was in the second row.

arrowhead is so steep that one guy actually started picking up speed as he rolled over peoples slick Starter jackets

i saw a dude do a handstand on the outer ramp from the top of arrowhead. scared the crap out of me just watching.

Yep, I was at that game and caught that in person.............unreal.

Yep I had a few bruises after that one.

Yeah I remember that...IIRC it was after the Broncos game

810 is reporting that it is jimmy dean related.

Fu#kin Chiefs make me want to climb to the top of the Arrowhead scoreboard and do a header on Herms car.

Drunk bastard. ROFL

I work with him. He is really a great guy. His pager went off under his seat, and when he tried to pick it up...he blacked out.

You can't feed a football team on a 12oz goldern sausage, they wanna eat godammit.
