Jacob Gooch and his family were among the 1 million fans enjoying the Chiefs' Super Bowl celebration in Kansas City, Missouri, on Wednesday when they heard a fight break out.
"We hear a lady saying, something like, 'Not now, this isn't the place,' or something, and pushing this guy back," Gooch told ABC News. "Then all of a sudden, we hear pop, pop, pop pop, pop, pop -- you know, the gunshots."
"I get hit -- and I'm thinking fireworks, in my head. So I look down -- I see smoke coming out of my ankle, people rushing me," he said. "I turn to try to start running and I collapsed to the ground, because, obviously, I couldn't run."
Gooch, his wife and his 13-year-old son were all shot and are recovering from gunshot wounds to their feet and legs.
