VIDEO: Photographer Tries to Catch Kickoff in LSU-Auburn Game, Takes it to Face Instead
By Kyle Koster
A photographer learned the limits of the “next man up” philosophy when she tried to catch a kickoff during the LSU-Auburn game. It looked like she had a good chance to make a clean grab. The ball hit her square in the face instead.
The good news? Fleeting pain is always worth viral fame.
