I heard through the grapevine that a person fell from the Yakima Valley SunDome. I have not seen any type of official notice from any the Yakima Police Department or any official news release.

This article is meant to be light-hearted and not poke fun at anyone who may have been injured at, around, or above the Yakima Valley fair grounds and State Fair Park.

If this is a situation that did actually occur, I hope everyone involved is safe and sound.

If someone did indeed fall from the SunDome (which once again, as of the time of this writing, it is merely speculation) we have to ask what the motivation was.

Was the person hopeful to find several frisbees, kites, or missing basketballs from the legendary Yakima Sunkings?

Were they suffering from a mental illness or perhaps suicidal?

Note: If you are feeling depressed and suicidal, please reach out for help and dial 9-8-8.

No matter what the motivation for the alleged climbing and falling from the Yakima SunDome, I've come up with a helpful list of things you should not do if you find yourself on top of the Yakima SunDome.

NOTE: The SunDome and State Fair Park are considered private property; do not trespass or climb anything unless you have proper permission; otherwise, you risk injury and legal actions may occur.
