A parachutist narrowly avoided serious injury on Friday, January 2, during a pregame ceremony at the Lockheed Martin Armed Forces Bowl after becoming caught in the field-goal netting and falling into the stadium seating area. The incident unfolded moments before kickoff at Amon G. Carter Stadium as multiple parachutists descended onto the field ahead of the game between Texas State and Rice. The video showed one parachutist colliding with the net cable and hanging suspended near the top of the goalposts, approximately 35 feet above the ground, before the parachute released and he dropped near the end zone. Bowl officials confirmed the parachutist was not seriously hurt and was able to leave the field on his own. No fans were injured, and the game continued as planned, with Texas State defeating Rice 41–10. US Road Accident: 2 Female Students From Telangana Die After Car Plunges Into Gorge in California.
