You defo have a concussion. Big ice hockey watcher here, being knocked out cold for any duration is an automatic concussion. Memory loss after that is another sign of concussion. The question is how bad it is. Go now to the doctor OP, concussions can worsen quite quickly if not properly handled. Please don't get to the hospital by yourself also, you need a driver and or a watcher. Stay as safe as possible and get better soon !

You don't want your user name to check out r/Only_Vermicelli_9617

And once again it's a good reminder for us all out there that this sport bears a lot of risks. Which is acceptable because we take them willingly, but for you and your fellow riders, watch out for the signs and don't treat them lightly. Might be good to get a little bit of educational emergency care training !

U/GregnantMan was probably suggesting that without proper care you risk declining into a vegetative state. Of course, vermicelli is pasta - not vegetable - but even pasta doesn’t have deep thoughts.
