At least two people were taken to the hospital and dozens of fans screened by emergency responders after a foul odor from a ventilation unit sickened several players and spectators at three-year-old Ridgeland (SC) High School. No serious injuries were reported and foul play was not suspected, according to Mayor Gary Hodges. Between 200 and 300 people were at the game when the unit kicked on, sickening a basketball player and then others, with illnesses ranging from nausea and vomiting to skin irritation. Maybe people will start paying more attention during those halftime interviews the next time a coach says, "we're really stinking it up out there tonight."
