Have you ever done the total Internet, phone, and social media blackout, because you couldn't watch a game live, but you didn't want the ending spoiled?  Here's the WORST way that can end.

 

 

--Last week, 32-year-old Dan Drobac of Eagan, Minnesota recorded a University of Minnesota men's basketball game.  Based on the schedule, it must've been the game last Tuesday between Minnesota and the University of Nebraska.

 

 

--By Friday, he STILL hadn't gotten around to watching . . . and, somehow, he'd still avoided spoilers.  Until a utility worker outside his house started listening to a sports-talk radio show, where the hosts mentioned the game's outcome.   And Dan heard it.

 

 

--So he responded by threatening to KILL the worker . . . then barricaded himself inside his house.  A SWAT team had to be called in, and the cops eventually went inside . . . but they didn't find any guns.  Dan's been charged with felony terroristic threats.

 

 

--By the way, Minnesota beat Nebraska 84-to-65.  Let's hope that didn't spoil it for you.  And if it did, please refrain from causing a police standoff.
