Man dies after falling from upper concourse

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.

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.

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.

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.
