DTotD: Abby Wambach hits guy carrying food with errant shot

By Brooks Peck

During warmups before the U.S. Women's National Team played China in Philadelphia last week, striker Abby Wambach lofted a shot way over the goal and into the stands. Unfortunately for the guy in red who just spent $50 on stadium food, he just so happened to be directly in the ball's path just as he was about to settle into his seat. He never saw it coming, but the ball hit him, causing him to drop one of his overpriced purchases.

He appeared to take the surprise well, immediately laughing it off as Wambach winced. Though someone with 109 international goals is obviously quite the sniper, it apparently wasn't her intention to knock the food out of an older gentleman's hands 20 rows up.
