Tragedy at Oklahoma State Homecoming

[irishpipes]

The local news is showing video of the crash. Terrible. Who is drunk at 10:30 in the morning? The news is saying the driver was not an OSU student. Unfortunately, OSU is no stranger to tragedy in connection to athletics with 2 plane crashes in recent memory.

ETA: a 4th person has died - a 2 year old

The alumni FB feed says that the President and advisors discussed canceling the game, but there are so many ramifications of that, and it affects so many systems and moving parts. They decided to play and honor the victims. Honestly, I think it was a good decision.

The news of the 2 year old who died later in the afternoon is heartbreaking. I don't have any info of the others. The reports of the eyewitnesses are horrifying. What the hell is wrong with people?

I would bet that she was still drunk or stoned from the prior night of partying....
