A man and a woman who fell off the balcony of the Thomas & Mack Center after Saturday night's UNLV basketball game are still hospitalized at Sunrise Hospital and Medical Center.
The two, whose names and ages have not been released by University of Nevada, Las Vegas officials, plummeted to the level below and landed on a woman, whose name has also not been released.

UNLV spokesman Dave Tonelli said the man had been giving the woman a piggy-back ride about 10 minutes after the game ended.
Tonelli said the man, who Tonelli said told UNLV Police he had been drinking, lost his balance and fell over the balcony.
The two and the woman they fell on were all taken to Sunrise Hospital, Tonelli said. He said none of them are UNLV students.
A Sunrise Hospital spokeswoman said the man who fell was in fair condition at the hospital and was suffering from head and facial injuries. The woman was in good condition and suffered orthopedic injuries.
The woman they fell on had minor injuries and was treated and released, the spokeswoman said.
