Cheerleader badly injures pride after face-plant during dance routine

Talk about embarrassing. This Atlanta Hawks cheerleader had to be taken off the court on a stretcher Monday night after falling flat on her face during some wild cheering action. It appears that Kristen (whose last name wasn’t released) took the spill when she slipped after trying to pull off a one-footed hop. She was treated at Atlanta Medical Center and released later that night, and she’s reportedly doing fine, aside from (we assume) a badly bruised ego. Fortunately, the fall went down during the intermission between the third and fourth quarters of the Hawks vs. Mavericks NBA game; maybe everyone was too busy buying Bud Light and hot dogs to notice. One can only hope, Kristen. [Source]
