This seems more like a West Virginia fan incident.

Insight: drunk idiot climbed on the traffic light and fell.

Hope he wasn't hurt badly.

The presumably dozens of kids cheering underneath are very fortunate that he didn't break off that mast arm directly on top of them.

They greased the light and traffic poles. Maybe while climbing past it he got some on his shoes and that caused him to fall.

Or, maybe idiots just shouldn't be climbing poles and falling off is the price they pay. I was once younger and capable of some pretty stupid shite but I like to think I wouldn't have ever done this if I were in the same situation.

Seeing as how this is Florida... that feels pretty tame, honestly.

I'm sure he already has a lawyer for a lawsuit against city of Gainesville

It could have been worse if in Philly - someone would have shot him with a gun

I heard they only greased the poles on University Ave and it was also raining in Gainesville last night.
