There’s a reason it’s called the Lambeau Leap and not the Ralph Wilson Stadium Leap.

While NFL players celebrating a touchdown often jump into the stands to interact with some lucky fans, most of the fans are smart enough to catch said player. Key word: most.

In Sunday’s Bills-Rams game in Buffalo, tight end Lee Smith caught a touchdown pass and wanted to make the leap into the Bills’ faithful. But, for whatever reason, the fans weren’t ready for the backup tight end’s plunge.

Check out the animation below to see Smith’s dip into the dark abyss amongst Bills fans.
