Multiple individuals sustain severe injuries during Hamburg SV's stairway celebration event
Welcome to the wild world of fresh victories and Elbe city chaos! 🇩🇪🏈
Last night's Hamburg SV (HSV) promotion celebrations took a heart-stopping turn when an estimated two dozen fans received serious injuries after a chaotic pitch invasion at Volksparkstadion. One fan even faced life-threatening injuries, as reported by the Hamburg Fire Department. Suffice to say, it was mayhem on the pitch! 🤯💔
Meanwhile, 19 fans ended up in nearby hospitals with severe injuries, while another 5 were treated for minor ones. Some folks even took death-defying leaps from the stands, according to a fire department spokesperson. Naturally, scuffles occurred due to the messy situation, adding to the medical emergencies tallied. In total, personnel from the rescue service and fire department treated a whopping 44 patients! 🚑
Police were busy keeping the locker room area secure as fans delighted in the promotion win, tearing down advertising boards, and even cutting out the net of the promotion goal! Seems like some fans just had to take souvenirs home... But this seems to be common after such celebrations! 🤔
The emergency services had quite the weekend, as they were also handling the 836th Hamburg Port Anniversary and Schlager star Roland Kaiser's concert at the Barclays Arena. Wow, that's a lot of fun and potential chaos packed into one weekend! 🎉🎸
So, while HSV fans celebrated their return to the Bundesliga following a 6-1 win against SSV Ulm, the aftermath of the wildly uncontrollable pitch invasion left dozens with injuries and even one critically ill. But hey, let's not rain on anyone's parade! ☁️🎉
Stay safe, and here's to hoping for less injury and more joy at future victories! 🌟🏅💪
