omg what a crazy scene at the sporting event i mean who expects a kangaroo to show up out of nowhere? apparently the organizers were super unprepared and now they're trying to figure out how it happened . I wonder if the contestants on that quiz had any idea about the wildlife invasion . 14% is a pretty low percentage, so i doubt many people scored perfect . but hey at least its not boring and now we have a funny story to talk about .

just saw this thing happen at a sporting event and i'm surprised no one had a plan for it. like, what if a deer or something hops onto the field? they need to get their act together and have some wildlife emergency protocol in place. also, can't help but feel bad for the roo... poor thing just trying to get to the snacks

idk why people are so surprised lol a kangaroo just hopping around, what did they expect? it's not like the event was kangaroo-proof or anything but at the same time, i feel bad for the organizers they probably didn't see that coming and now they're gonna have to deal with all the extra work of cleaning up after a roo but still, it's kinda funny maybe they can just add 'wildlife risk assessment' to their list of things to check before events

I wonder how that 'roo got into the stadium in the first place . I mean, they're great at hopping, but not so much with sneaking past security . It's like they say, you can't prepare for everything! The contestants on the quiz were probably having a laugh about it too.

I'm guessing last week's final was some kind of big match? Maybe a Premier League game or something . I've been meaning to check out that rugby thing, but haven't had the chance yet . Anyway, I'll have to give this quiz a go and see if I can beat my score from last time .

I'm kinda curious how the organizers are going to make sure this doesn't happen again next time... maybe they could get some help from wildlife experts or something?

I'm not sure how this is even possible but seriously, who expects a kangaroo to hop onto the scene at a sporting event?! Organizers need to up their game (or should I say, outsmart the wildlife?) lol! On a more serious note, it's crazy that they weren't prepared for something like that. Maybe they could've had some backup plans in place ? Anyway, kudos to whoever took the quiz and nailed those questions and yeah, 14% is pretty impressive! I'm rooting for them to make it again

Ugh, big deal! A kangaroo hopped onto the scene at some sporting event? Like, who cares?! It's not like it was a major security breach or anything. I mean, what were the organizers supposed to do, call in a wildlife expert on short notice? "Oh no, we've got a rogue roo on our hands!"

And seriously, 14% of people scoring perfect in some trivia quiz is pretty impressive if you ask me. I think that's awesome! Maybe they should just let the contestants be and not make it all about winning or losing? I mean, sports are supposed to be fun for everyone, right?

I'll definitely follow BBC Sport on social media, but only because I love watching sports and quizzes are a fun way to pass the time. Not because I need some quiz to validate my own intelligence... LOL!

omg what a crazy moment at the sporting event i mean i love animals but not like this lol! it's wild how they weren't prepared for a wildlife invasion, that's some major fail . can you imagine if a bird or squirrel just showed up on the field during a game? anyway, i wonder what kind of tech could help prevent something like this from happening again in the future maybe some sort of animal tracking system or AI-powered event management software? would be awesome to see that happen

 

[Spirit of the Ro]

I don’t usually comment but I just can't help thinkin' about the poor organizers at this event . Like, who expects a kangaroo to show up outta nowhere? It's not like they were prepared for it! I mean, you gotta respect the wildlife and all, but come on, get some backup plan in place, ya know?

It's kinda funny thinkin' about the contestants on that quiz though . They're tryin' to figure out what sport was played last week and how a kangaroo disrupted it? That's like tryin' to solve a puzzle with missing pieces . But at the same time, I guess it's nice they were able to stay engaged and have some fun with it.

I'm just glad no one got hurt, that's the most important thing . And yeah, if 14% of people can get perfect scores on a quiz, then maybe they can make it happen again .

I'm shocked that no one thought of checking the outfields before a big sporting event . I mean, kangaroos are pretty common in Australia, but still! It's like they expected a rain shower to pop up out of nowhere instead of actual precipitation . And poor contestants who took the quiz last time... 14% is actually really impressive . But yeah, it's hard to imagine not thinking about wildlife when hosting events outdoors. Maybe next time they'll be more prepared? Fingers crossed .
