Thank goodness someone was there that took action. Everybody else in the restaurant just sat by and looked, another one of “those” scenarios, and this is in my back yard not too far from home. Even a restaurant employee commented that it seemed nobody else knew what to do. He did the Heimlich maneuver and popped the meat out that the man had been 
choking on. After what we have seen lately with those who don’t bother to help or get involved, stories like this are such a nice change of pace to say the least, and he compared it to what he might do on a “hospital visit”. BD
“I had seen it done, so I just did it,” Gonzalez said. “When you find yourself in those situations where you have to take action in a crucial situation, you just do it. I got the same feeling I get when I go on a hospital visit.”’ BD
KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP)—A California man says Pro Bowl tight end Tony Gonzalez of the Kansas City Chiefs kept him from choking to death. “Tony saved my life. There’s no doubt,” Ken Hunter, a shipping company manager, told The Associated Press in a phone interview from Huntington Beach, Calif. Gonzalez, a nine-time Pro Bowl selection who has set numerous NFL records, was having dinner with his wife, brother and 5-week-old daughter at Capone’s restaurant in Huntington Beach Thursday night. Hunter, 45, was dining with his girlfriend at the next table when suddenly a piece of meat stuck in his throat.
