Gambling is supposed to be fun and exciting as players compete for the best cards or best roll of the dice. It is not supposed to be dangerous but for one Athens, Georgia man it was. A homeless man was walking the streets of the town and decided to rest behind a building but apparently he chose the wrong building to rest behind.

As the man turned the corner of an apartment complex he was jumped by a group of men who were playing craps in the late hours of night. The homeless man knew one of the men and walked up to him and without provoking the man punched the homeless man in the face.
The other men decided to join in and proceed to punch and kick the man until he fell over.

Police have stated the man was taken to a local hospital and was treated for bruises, bloody mouth and most likely broken ribs. The man is lucky to be alive as he was outnumbered by the group of men.
