->> Photographer Scott Kelby shooting the Bears v Packers game yesterday had a fun read on his blog about Packers QB Aaron Rodgers sliding into him and breaking his Gitzo monopod.

Good read and great sense of humor Scott!

Love the 4th pic in his blog showing his Nikon gear in mid flight with the broken monopod still attached.

I've been wiped out in the corners of a couple of stadiums in the past ... sometimes there is just so much congestion of humanity ... there is nowhere to flee to to avoid the collision ... then again, Scott could be like me and getting a little slower with age ;-)
