This happened this morning, i am currently writing this in the hospital at evening where i live. Sorry in advance for the wording as english is my 2nd language.

Earlier today i was at my cousins handball match and each match during halftime there is a game where the spectators get to throw a tennis ball for 2 dollars onto the field and get as close as possible to a cone that is placed in the middle. The winner usually recieves a prize up to 120€.

I buy one ball each every time for myself and 2 for my 2 nieces. After losing track of where my ball went, low and behold they call my name over the loudspeaker and they tell me to get down to the court to get my price of 100€. Surprised as i was i try to find the nearest way down to the court, there were way too many people sitting on my row so i decide to hop over the rows in front of me to get down.

I try to use the seats to go down but when im climbing over the 2nd row of chairs the chair that i was stepping on breaks so obviously i lose my balance and i fall 2 rows or something down, falling flat on the fucking ground and getting my left leg stuck in a gap between the seats and thus having the right one falling and smashing right onto the edge of the concrete.

I try to play it off and walk down the staircase but before i reach it i lose complete control of my right leg, i collapse and decide to just yell for someone to call an ambulance.

Ambulance arrived (i’m european) , i was sent to the hospital and right as i thought my right leg was broken.

I am currently in the hospital room having gotten xrays, and my cousin came and left me the envelope with the 100€.

TL;DR, won 100€ at a ball throwing contest at my cousins handball game, tried to get down to the court by stepping over the seats in the rows below me, fell down multiple rows, broke my leg and ended up in the hospital.
