ST. LOUIS — Former NFL running back Reggie Bush alleges that dangerous conditions at a St. Louis stadium led to a season-ending injury in a case that could leave the city on the hook for damages, even though the Rams are long gone.
Defendants in the civil trial, which began Tuesday, include two public entities — the St. Louis Regional Convention and Sports Complex Authority and the St. Louis Convention and Visitors Commission — as well as the Rams, the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports.
Bush was playing for the San Francisco 49ers in November 2015 when he slipped and fell in a game after being pushed out of bounds at the former Edward Jones Dome, now called the Dome at America’s Center.
