Watch: Colts punter nearly drilled by snowball

It’s snowy in Kansas City, and Indianapolis Colts punter Rigoberto Sanchez realized it the hard way.

While setting up to punt in the first quarter of Saturday’s AFC Divisional game, a snowball landed near Sanchez’s feet, presumably thrown by a Chiefs fan.

Someone had a really good arm and very good aim. It’s not an easy shot, assuming it was a fan, but there’s no real way of telling where it came from.

Sanchez did a nice job ducking it. Of course, he almost certainly didn’t notice given the throw came just short of hitting him from behind. At the very least, somebody’s fired up for Saturday’s game.
