On February 23rd of 2015, after Kansas State’s defeat of Kansas in braimlage branlage bramledge Bramlage Coliseum, Wildcat fans stormed (rushed/flooded/ran upon) the court in celebration. In the chaos of the event, one student and K-State fan made some sort of aggressive move (it has like six different names, I’ve heard “shoulder-check” “shove” “chicken-wing” etc) on Kansas Forward Jamari Traylor. It has sparked debate and controversy around the sports world, and rightly so. Though it wasn’t violent, it still happened and people still came into contact with players, which is a big no-no.
I am not this student. I do not know this student, but he looks like a Nathan or something like that. But I would like to apologize. I would like to apologize first, to Jayhawk Nation, for letting you down. I would also like to apologize to Wildcat Nation for letting you down as well. I would like to apologize to the United Nations for throwing the word “nation” around like it doesn’t mean anything. I would like to say that this wasn’t done in any sort of anger. I would like to say that I got caught up in the moment. I would like to say that court-storming, if left unchecked, will lead to violence and potential danger for fans, players, coaches, and officials alike. There are many things that I’d like to say to you, but I don’t know how.
Because maybe, you’re gonna be the one that saves me
and after all
you’re my Wonderwall
Back beat, the word is on the street that the fire in your heart is out
I’m sure, you’ve heard it all before but you never really had the doubt
I don’t believe that anybody feels the way I do about you now
and all the roads we have to walk are winding
and all the lights that leads us there are blinding
There are many things that I would like to say to you, but I don’t know how
I said maybe
You’re gonna be the one that saves me
and after all
You’re my Wonderwall
I said maybe (I said maybe)
You’re gonna be the one that saves me (saves me)
and after all
You’re my Wonderwall
