The Unwritten Rule of Snowball Interference
In the midst of a blizzard, anything can happen. And in Buffalo, where snow is a way of life, fans take their winter wonderland antics to the next level. So, when a die-hard Bills enthusiast attempted to block a 33-yard field goal with a snowball, it wasn’t entirely far-fetched.
The Art of Snowball Hurling
Buffalo natives are born with a natural talent for crafting and launching snowballs. It’s an innate skill, honed from a young age, much like Buddy the Elf’s remarkable ability to transform into a human snowball launcher. If anyone could successfully deflect a field goal attempt, it would be a Buffalonian.
The Gray Area of NFL Rules
While the NFL rulebook might not be a thrilling read, it’s unlikely to contain a specific clause prohibiting fans from blocking field goals with snowballs. After all, who would have thought to include such a rule? Perhaps last night’s incident would have been the perfect opportunity to create a new precedent. If the snowball block had succeeded, it would have been a remarkable moment in NFL history.
The Challenge Has Been Issued
Give Buffalo fans a few more snowy games, and it’s only a matter of time before someone successfully lands a snowball block. The gauntlet has been thrown, and fans are ready to take on the challenge. Will the NFL be forced to create a new rule to address this unconventional form of fan interference? Only time will tell.
