Reporter Suffered Apparent Broken Leg During Iowa State Court Storming
By Ty Duffy
Iowa State Cyclones fans stormed the court, after overcoming a 20-point second half deficit to beat the rival Iowa Hawkeyes. Des Moines Register columnist Randy Peterson suffered an apparent broken leg as a result. He was removed on a stretcher in an air cast.
It may be time for the “let the kids have fun” crowd to revisit this.

Possible broken leg for @RandyPete, per @CoachProhm. Caused by Iowa State court-storming.

Thinking of my guy @RandyPete in this postgame presser. Told him I'm staying with him. Pete: "Go write your story!"
