Be Careful of The Guy in The Wheelchair

This must have been a scary moment for Will Privette.  The wheelchair bound student from North Carolina State was part of a large group celebration after The Wolfpack upset top ranked  Duke on Saturday afternoon in Raleigh.  Privette who had part of a leg amputated when he was a child is a regular attendee of Wolfpack games.  He also acts as a statistician for the Wolfpack baseball team.

As the final seconds ticked off the clock and the game ended, Privette, who sits close to the action at the games, was wheeled onto the court and stopped at mid court.  Just moments later the entire student section charged onto the court.  In the crush the wheelchair was tipped over, Privette fell out and lost his glasses and cell phone.  The good news is that he was not hurt and seems to not be upset about it at all.

Should the students rushing the court have been more controlled and kept away from his wheelchair?  Maybe Will should have stayed off the court.  Would not allowing any students to rush the court have been a better idea?  What do you think should the response have been after the game?  Would you have been scared during this event?
