The 'dust devil' hit the young receiver who, taken by surprise, was struggling to get out of the vortex. Ready the intervention of the referee who managed to free the child from the clutches of the "sand devil".

The one that struck during the game between Ponte Vedra Sharks and Fort Caroline Athletic Assoc. Indians in Florida with a sudden gust on a day of quiet weather is a meteorological phenomenon typical of desert and dry territories that, although having nothing to do with tornadoes, is still due to convective currents of very small size.
