Boxing is one of the most interesting sports, with its own band of supporters whose fanaticism can sometimes rival that of soccer fans. Rarely, however, are the venues large enough where the crowd can get out of control, but there is a level of energy that’s higher than most other spectator events. Las Vegas in particular is a place where the fans are more worked up than most cities, due to the high energy of the town itself. It’s not minimized at all by the money that can be at stake.

In fact, the combination of gambling and boxing together is itself something that can be very exhilarating, and there’s no feeling quite like it. Imagine, then, watching a match at Caesars Palace , where the unexpected can always happen, and often does.

The year is 1993, and it’s a fight between Holyfield and Bowe . The fight has already been as exciting as these things can get. In the 7th round, however, a man came in on a parachute, powered by a large fan, and landed right in the middle of the ring. He was making a public protest about violence in sports, and thought this would be a good moment to get attention. He was right, and he also suffered a few blows from the onlookers, who decided this was a good moment to get his attention.

There’s not always this kind of excitement happening at Las Vegas hotels , but every night of the week there’s something interesting happening. It’s enough to keep people coming back, and sometimes a boxing match is better without the parachute.
