It is unclear as to what the shoe-throwing fan’s game plan might have been. The line judge, who was standing right there, noticed the shoe and blew the play dead. They should have beat the brakes off of a historically bad Jayhawks team and ended up losing by 13 in overtime. The fan atop the stairs immediately snitched and pointed up in the bleachers.
