If for some reason the moron didn't have a fire extinguisher handy:
1. Move the grill and shut it off.
2. Stomp out the small fire with your feet before it becomes a big
fire.
3. THEN go for water.

There is nothing wrong with using a gas grill on a wood deck, if
you're not a total moron that stands there watching the flames until
the entire deck is totally engulfed before you decide maybe you should
go for water.
