“One of our teammates accidently set the fire alarm off, like the sprinklers and he didn’t really get mad, he didn’t yell at her and we were planning to go to Six Flags that day…He gave up his tickets with his daughter and wife so that we could pay for the repairs and then all the players to go to the trip,” describes Chestnut.
