It's Not Just For Breakfast Anymore!
She owes her life to beer!
Beer prevents serious injury at NHL game
CALGARY, Alberta (UPI) -- A Calgary, Alberta, woman is crediting beer falling on her head at a hockey game with saving her from being crushed by a falling man.
Glennis Bradshaw, 46, was watching a game at the Calgary SaddleDome between the Calgary Flames and Vancouver Canucks Saturday night when beer splashing onto her head caused to sit back quickly and look up just a man fell onto her lap from 20 feet above, the Calgary Sun reported.
Police said two men carrying beer on an upper level slipped, and toppled over a railing. Bradshaw said if the beer hadn't caused her to jump and lean back, the man would have landed on her head, and "we'd be talking about something completely different."
One man fell two rows ahead of Bradshaw, and got up unscathed, but the man who fell on her lap broke his ankle on a seat back and was knocked unconscious briefly.
Bradshaw sustained a deep bruise to her thigh, but told the newspaper she's not planning any lawsuits, as "it's not often young men fall in my lap.
"Thing is, normally I'd like them conscious," she said.

She should look at the brighter side, at least when he regains consciousness he won't be able to run away from her.
I don't think she would want to keep him.
He seems annoying and rude.
After all, you never know when he's going to drop in without calling!
And he spills his beer.
it's the "spilling the beer" part that's the worst.
There's nothing wrong with spilling beer.
As long as you spill it into your mouth!
wonder if his falling becomes a bar trick his friends want him to repeat, just for the fun of it? I think she needs to go to another hockey game, and keep looking-up, down, left, right......
If he would use a bungee cord in this trick, he could get his beer for free!
