And he didn't just fall through the bridge, he dusted himself off and went to the game anyways! Guy didn't even go to the hospital for days despite being obviously concussed...
I have to disagree as you have no evidence to support your position.
Based on the information provided, it seems highly unlikely to me that a guy who passed up an easy payday for a baseball would get an attorney friend to lie for what is likely going to be a very small claim. He still attended the game, and another game a couple days later, which likely rules out substantial suffering. So, given the low potential payout what would be his motivation? Simplest explanation is the guy just fell through an ill-maintained bridge. Could happen to anyone, really!
