This Poor Hawks Fan Nearly Puked All Over The Atlanta Bench

The Atlanta Hawks took on the Miami Heat on Monday night at Philips Arena. It was, on the whole, a rather uneventful game, one of the hundreds of anonymous regular season games that take place throughout the year.

The Hawks ended up winning, 110-104, over a Heat team decimated by injuries to the point of only dressing nine players. Atlanta, despite a 6-23 record entering the night, was favored over Miami for that reason and managed to cover.

There were a few highlights, mostly of Hawks rookie John Collins dunking (that’s his thing). But in the grand scheme of things, it was a rather uneventful evening in Atlanta.

That is with the exception of one poor fan behind the Atlanta bench who, deep in the fourth quarter, was not feeling well. This fan either ate something or drank something that did not agree with her, because as the camera panned across the Hawks bench as they were getting out of a timeout it caught her puking (a lot) into her hand right behind the bench.

Suddenly finding yourself overcome with nausea and having to vomit immediately in a public place is a terrible, terrible feeling. The good news is she was able to cover her mouth at least to an extent and point downwards to keep from launching vomit all over the Hawks bench, which would have made for a much more spectacular video.

We hope this fan is feeling better today, but if it helps, she wasn’t the only one to puke during the game on Monday as Dion Waiters explained he too vomited after eating too much spaghetti.
