And you thought your day was bad.
UCLA’s Sophie Lellis-Petrie had a rough night to say the least during UCLA’s men’s basketball game against Oregon at Pauley Pavilion on Thursday.
The cheerleader took a hard fall on her tailbone after falling from the pyramid. Her misfortunes continued as the man carrying her off the hardwood slipped and dropped her while trying to rush her off the court so she could receive medical attention.

“Say a prayer, light a candle for that young angel of UCLA,” ESPN analyst Bill Walton said during the telecast.
But Sophie came back like a champ to witness the 10th-ranked Bruins’ amazing comeback victory as UCLA rallied from a 19-point deficit to beat No. 5 Oregon 82-79.
Thx for all the well wishes, Sophie was evaluated by emergency medical staff and was back on the court for that amazing win!
