Lions Fan Rejects James Jones' Lambeau Leap

A fan wearing a Honolulu blue t-shirt rejected James Jones attempt at the Lambeau Leap in Detroit's week 5 loss to the Green Bay Packers. Another fan wearing a Lions hat can be seen in the vicinity. He looks pretty happy about the turn of events. We're not sure how they scored such good tickets, but they took full advantage.

The first time the Packers got into the end zone, Jones' jump into the crowd was thwarted by the apparent Lions fan who pushed the receiver down. Jones fell back to the turf and was successful when he chose friendlier spot for his second attempt.

The 83-yard reception by James Jones led to the 22-9 loss in week 5 for the Lions.

Was this move poor sportsmanship or would you have done the same thing?
