debwill Posted December 6, 2006 Report Share Posted December 6, 2006 I just got word that Mike Balzer was in a hunting accident yesterday while driving an ATV. For those of you who may not know Mike, he was the Late Model champion at SAS a few years ago. Here the message I received from Brenda Lane: Mike Balzer was in an ATV accident at his hunting lease yesterday. Apparently it landed on his back. They airlifted him to University last night. Has a fractured hip, do not know what else at this time. He had to crawl in over a mile and a half. Will keep you posted. I think he will be OK. Take care Brenda Please keep Mike in your prayers. I will post any updates. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NeilTPS Posted December 6, 2006 Report Share Posted December 6, 2006 Mike Balzer is a tough guy. "He had to crawl in over a mile and a half". Which proves how tough Mike is.. Heal quickly old buddy.

debwill Posted December 9, 2006 Author Report Share Posted December 9, 2006 I just talked with Brenda Lane regarding Mike's condition. He has two hip fractures and is currently at University Hospital in San Antonio. I'm sure he's in a lot of pain. The whole story is quite amazing.
