Bobby Livingston committed suicide

Obviously that's the worst possible end to the story there could be, but man if this isn't another lesson on why not to post jokes on Facebook that have to do with your job, etc.

Lots of people's livelihood's come to an end over stupid stuff posted to Facebook.

I was most disappointed that WKRG in Mobile made his termination and ultimate suicide being a result of hanging the flag. That had nothing to do with either of the issues he faced. It all resulted from the stupid Facebook "jokes" he made.

It's one thing to joke and poke at opposing fanbases but you have to know "jokes" about putting 10-20K people's live in jeopardy is beyond anything that can be considered a joke.

Really hard to feel sorry for a man that sabotaged construction at any stadium, especially mine.

I agree 110%.

Yep

I think they looked and couldn't find any actual sabotage committed by him.

I can't remember the exact details but the contractor stated his role was not actually to weld anything.

He was like a grunt carrying shite to the welders so the jokes were obviously nothing more than jokes (though in exceptionally bad taste)

dude

and he didn't sabotage anything. He made jokes in bad taste. He apparently paid dearly for that though I'm sure it wasn't that simple and his entire life is pretty unlikely to be summed up over his Kyle Field construction job

The SDS article is from July and in the other article his sister said that he hung himself almost 2 months later. So I guess this happened sometime in September.?

The only sad thing is that an adult let a game consume his life to the level that he lost his job and killed himself over it. He dug his own grave.
