Yeah, there is actually an NFL referee buried underneath this mass of humanity.

Referee Ron Winter was caught in the wrong place at the wrong time on Sunday.  Baltimore Ravens cornerback Jimmy Smith intercepted a pass from Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Andy Dalton.  During the return, Smith had the ball poked loose by Bengals receiver Jerome Simpson. 

The ball was bouncing toward referee Ron Winter.  (You can see where this is going).  Ron Winter was the wildebeest that got caught in a mad scramble of hunting lions.  The Ravens recovered the fumble and went on to beat the Bengals 31-24.  Ron Winter was fine and luckily didn't lose any major body parts.
