A skydiver was rescued Saturday after their parachute became entangled on the scoreboard at Virginia Tech's Lane Stadium, causing a delay to the university's spring football game.

The incident occurred before the scheduled start of Virginia Tech's spring game at Lane Stadium in Blacksburg, Virginia. The skydiver's parachute snagged on the stadium scoreboard, leaving them suspended above the field.

Virginia Tech officials confirmed on social media that rescue operations were conducted and the skydiver "was safely secured and is currently stable." The university did not immediately release details about the skydiver's identity or the circumstances that led to the mishap.

The rescue effort delayed the start of the spring game, which serves as an annual scrimmage for the Virginia Tech football team. Spring games are typically held by college football programs to showcase their teams to fans during the offseason.

Officials have not released information about how long the rescue took or whether the skydiver required medical attention beyond the initial assessment that their condition was stable.
