  The kid shot himself in a football stadium and I should feel bad? I think it is awful he got to this level but attention was wanted.

  Think long term. Now October home games can be marketed as being played in a haunted stadium. Haunted by the ghost of a student who commited suicide at the 50.

  It is VERY selfish to expect someone to keep living that decides they no longer want to.
  
  I have no sympathy for people who decide clear headed to commit suicide. I cheer their bravery, with so many people out there who have no clue about the person commiting suicide.

  Whoa, whoa, whoa......where did I say I expect them to keep living? I didn't. So fuck off. Also, I don't care about having a clue about the person. Oh, whoa is me, I'm going to kill myself. He could have done it somewhere easier to clean up. I mean, people are going to eat their nachos and popcorn in those seats, no one wants possible brain fragments in the vicinity. Except maybe a zombay like yourself.

  I think it was before the stadium opened. So there probably wasn't very much security.

  An OSU student could blow their brains away in Ohio Stadium as Gate 23 is almost always open. I'm not sure about during the season, but it's open during the off-season.

  it apparently occurred the nite before....they found him at 10 AM when they began to get the stadium ready for the 3:30 game.

  The ignorance of some people, you shouldn't comment on someones suicide if you don't know what brought it on. who are you people? No one important, so get a life. The poor kid lost his friends in afghanistan when he was THERE with them. he wanted to "be with them" so he got all dressed up shined his shoes and went to infocision so he could see his friends again.
  Some people are lost and literally feel no other option, and it's appalling that people who know nothing about a topic can reply with such oblivion to a particular situation.

  Welcome to the College Football Forum. If this turns out to be a one-hit wonder post, I'm going to put it behind both the Lurker/Teacher guy and RecentlyDivorcedHottie22.
  
  I will say, however, that this gives OC some street cred.

  Dying while defending your country....probably going to a better place. Blowing your brains out in a football stadium....probably not gonna be joining his friends

  Ohio U won on Saturday. That is what truly matters, as Akron's attempt to fire up their team with a rousing "WIN ONE FOR...THAT DEAD PERSON!!!" didn't work out for them.

  So killing himself in a public place was his idea?

  I will reserve judgment on the success as a marketing ploy because it could be a viable long term solution. At least O-trap hopes so. Can you imagine pitching that idea in a meeting of your peers? Good thing he had that guy at the Rangers game earlier this year to prove that "death = success".

  O-trap said that it wasn't his group that got the bid for this project, so I'd imagine that he's sitting at home wishing he'd been a bit more creative and outside-the-box when it comes to thinking of ways of saving shit programs. Because now, someone else is perfectly set up to be known as Akron's savior.

  Oh, didn't see that they didn't take his idea. What a fucking loser. I mean, who wouldn't know that the only thing that'd make money for all those stiffs on the field would be a stiff in the stands?

  dont worry guys it wasnt me, im still here.
  
  also, he was scheduled to leave for Afghanistan. Sounds like he wanted to take advantage of the system by joining the ROTC to get scholarship but was too cowardly to go to war. Id say the coward/commit suicide stereotype fits perfectly here.

  How would you have liked to sit next to the seat with crime sene tape all over it for the game?

  Thankfully at Akron there are 20,000 other open seats to choose from to avoid that situation.

  I agree with that. I support the decision to end your own life, but there's no need to be a dick about it.
