Scary event here in Madison, SD

[bendtdj]

The local high school wrestling team has had what they call "Madison Square Garden Night" for the last 27 years. The 2013 version occured this past Friday night, 1-18-13. During this event, they turn off the gym lights and have just a spotlight on the center of the mat. It is a great time for the wrestlers and the fans. This year, there occured what could have been a terrible accident. The light that was suspended from the ceiling fell on top of one of the wrestlers. Here is a link to an interview with the student that aired Tuesday on NBC's "The Today Show".

I still am surprised that the kid was not hurt badly.

It is amazing the kid did not get killed. I am sure it would have been worse if he had still been standing up. They were all lucky.

It on local news here in Okla. how absolutely blessed this young man is. He must have a true purpose in his life. Cant wait to hear what he becomes.

Man he was lucky. Must been someone looking out for him. He's going to one rich kid when the attorney gets done. He could of been easily killed.
