Has this happened before?

I would think this is assault in most states, and the cops ought to be interested in this idiot.

I believe this has to have happened before. And, someone in the NFL is investigating this. What will happen to the person? I doubt it will be anything harsh.

yelling and cheering affects NFL games. why not ban that too?

There was a player last week (maybe 2 weeks ago) saying he was going to do it.

Because that's the same thing as having a laser pointer shined in your eyes.

Damn right it is. Yelling and cheering can damage the ears just like a laser pointer can damage the eyes!! 😡😡😡

When you think about, laser pointers are actually better. They only harm the person being targeted, yelling effects everyone in the vicinity.

I don't know about you, but it's hard as hell lining up a laser pointer at a distant target. Collateral damage is a given.

Not nearly as much as when yelling though. One could easily damage your own ears yelling. I've yet to, in the operation of pointing at someone else, shined a laser in my own eye.

Maybe, b/c they don't blind the player.

Wow, pretty damn stupid to post on social media.

I feel like these are the fans that need to get beaten by other fans. Into a coma/great bodily injury if they have good health insurance. If not, to death.

Let me guess: you're a Browns or an Eagles fan?

strap him down and shine a laser pointer into his eye

Neither, actually. I just feel the type of people who do this in the first place aren't going to be angels in every other aspect of their lives, but complete douchebags there as well. Someone who would shine a laser into someone's eye just because they're playing for an opposing team or shits and giggles is someone who deserves a miserable life.

EDIT: I root for the 49ers but really just enjoy quality football games. Last year's NFC championship game was great to watch, even though the 49ers lost.

Wait.. so these players are now blind? Wow, how is this legal?

Sucks their careers are over so soon. This would be the perfect weapon for terrorists. Just point it at people and BAM, they are blind.

You lose at Internet today.

I never understood the appeal or want to point lasers at anything other than a white board, large map or wall to screw with your cat.

Does shooting a laser beam into the eye of a human being working at their job affect their performance? Survey says: yes, yes it does :awe:

I'm kind of surprised he didn't get a beat down by fans near him. While I doubt he was holding the laser out in the open. But still should be apparent to people near him what he was doing. Unless he's surrounded by all his loser friends.

Agreed. Interrogative removed.
