FORT WORTH, Texas -- There's a saying to never celebrate a victory too early. As sports enthusiasts would agree, waiting until the clock hits zero is the only way to know the game is over -- and a way to save yourself from an embarrassment.

For a Fort Worth man, celebrating too early landed him in the netting at Top Golf.
