Extremely high winds in Knoxville caused some issues at Neyland Stadium on Saturday night and apparently endangered some fans.

A fan at the Tennessee-LSU game shared video on Twitter that shows a metal piece in the stands. The piece reportedly flew off the scoreboard and hit a man:

A second person also showed the metal piece in the stands:

To give you another idea of how rough the conditions were, take a look at the goal posts that were blown crooked due to the winds.
