Duke vs JMU pre-game snafu

[aust42]

Any JMU fans go to the game and see the skydiver land on the field? He was supposed to deliver the game ball for the NC football game but landed at Kenan Stadium by mistake. xlolx

xlolx We heard about it at the UNC game. I was wondering if they came in with Carolina Blue canopies and jump suits and if so, what kind of reception they got :D

That mistake might've jinxed JMU.xsmhx

Landing during player warm-ups. Smooth move, Ex-Lax.xthumbsupx

Kenan Stadium is where UNC plays.

I was walking towards the stadium with friends and we saw the skydivers at around 6. I said "what are those guys doing?" Nobody knew. I said (having no skydiving knowledge), "Maybe they're going to the UNC-McNeese game and are headed that way." I was told I was an idiot.

But, I was half right!!

We saw the story in the Charlotte paper the next day.

I doubt if you could blame their poor performance on that.

I was sure JMU would beat DUKE.

I was there tailgating with my duke family and we were all shocked to see the guy fly by... we thought it to be rather strange that a parachuter would land at the stadium about 1.5 hours before hand!

I wasn't sure, but I thought we would compete better. We did in the first half.

We were doing fine until Landers through a wounded duck (after a 60yd. kickoff return) and it got returned to our own 30 approx.

That crushed us. Then Landers fell apart.

If we play like that throughout the season, we'll be lucky to finish 4th in the CAA South. I'm hopeful it was a one game problem and the mindset can get turned around with NCCU.
