This is one of the worst injuries a person — or furry creature — can get on a football field.
“Bully,” the mascot for the Mississippi State Bulldogs, was knocked out of commission Thursday night when a wayward ESPN TV cart drilled the costumed critter. The student in the mascot suit suffered a compound fracture in the accident and had to have surgery on the injury that night, according to SB Nation. For those who don’t remember health class, a compound fracture is when the bone goes through the skin. That’s a nasty injury.
Mississippi State went on to beat Ole Miss in overtime, but at least one Bulldog won’t remember this Thanksgiving win fondly.
