Someone Appears To Be Stuck On The Jumbotron

There's a skydiver stuck on the video board. https://twitter.com/yakubbsmonster/status/2045578828467020048?s=20 Saturday's game at Lane Stadium in Blacksburg opened with the all-too-familiar pairing of college football and military-coded Americana, as skydivers descended over the stadium with American flags clipped to their gear. Video clips from social media show one of the skydivers clearing the video board.
