Jerry Jones' Clinton Encounter: Near Fall at Draft Presser

0:00On April 22nd, Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones had a close call at the pre-NFL draft press conference on Wednesday. Former President Bill Clinton made a surprise entrance, and Jones jumped up to greet his old friend. But in the excitement, he tripped heading to the podium. Jones and Clinton have known each other for years, so the intro was a big moment for the media crowd at the star. Midway through a reporter's question, Jones spotted Clinton at the door and interrupted to announce him. Luckily, Jones grabbed a chair to steady himself and avoided a full tumble. Clinton stepped in right away, helping him navigate down a step without any harm done. The whole thing played out smooth after that. ESPN reporter Jeff Darlington caught the near-miss-happ on video, and it's already blowing up online. No injuries reported, just a funny footnote to the draft hype. Jones shook it off like a pro, keeping the focus on Cowboys' business as Clinton waved to the room. Moments like these keep the league buzzing even before, pick start flying.
