As the Washington Huskies football team prepared for Saturday night’s game against the Arizona Wildcats, nine players were trapped in a hotel elevator. 

Nine members of the Washington Huskies football team had an interesting experience to overcome on Saturday, thanks to a little elevator mishap at the team hotel.

The players were riding the elevator at the Hilton Tucson East hotel, when they got trapped.

That sucks, right? Hopefully none of the players were claustrophobic.

The players were eventually removed from the elevator — one by one — by the local fire department.

From Tuscon TV station KGUN on Facebook:

"9OYS viewer Eric Hatcher just sent us this photo of nine (yes, nine) Washington Huskies, here for tomorrow’s football game, stuck in an elevator at the Hilton Tucson East hotel. Tucson Fire had to come remove them, one by one. Seriously."

Since the story would not be complete without a photo of the nine Washington Huskies players trapped inside of the elevator, here you go:

Next time, maybe it would be a good idea to take the stairs.

The Huskies are nine-point underdogs against the Arizona Wildcats today. Kickoff is set for 3:30 p.m. ET. Hopefully the team has more success getting to the stadium than they did getting to the lobby the night before.
