Why You Shouldn't Run Onto The Field At Fenway
Friday, May 30, 2008
This awesome video via TSB features a more than likely drunk fan running in the outfield at Fenway Park. You can guess what happens next....
BAM! The second angle is by far the best, but that kid just got....Jacked Up! I'm not quite sure how old this is but it's the first time I've seen it. If you've seen it before you have my apologies, but honestly...who wouldn't want to see that again?

Doesn't this guy look a little too old to be doing something like that?
yeah, sweet sweater dude.
How can these clowns catch this guy and they cant catch Drew Berrymore in Fever Pitch? I mean, I know she used Johnny Damon as a pick and all, but still.
@bdavis, you should be ashamed of yourself for not only having seen that movie, but referencing it as well.
Anyway, that dude did indeed get JACKED UP!
Love how the security guy stands over him and stares like he's looking for blood or hopes he knocked him out. then tosses his hat back at him...disappointed the guy is still alive.
The Pats brought the security guy in for a tryout at rookie camp.
Yet another reason why alcohol sales should be barred from sporting events.
That guy was obviously drunk off his ass. Give him a lifetime ban from the park as well. Hopefully he's a season ticket holder as well so he can lose those, too.
If that were rugby, the security guy would have been yellow-carded!
I wonder legally how much massive force can be used, I mean I know it is against the law and wrong but does that give Security groundspeople the right to take any type of shot they want? I would think there is a line somewhere.
frank-
they have to protect the players. if the guy is drunk enough to run onto the field, who knows what he would do if he got into the dugout. im not saying this guy was gonna do anything, but i wouldnt want to take that chance if im a security guard for a game. let something happen to a player and you are out of a job.
"I thought this was America!"
Sweet Caroline still sucks.
Protecting players from drunk fans doesn't given security carte blanche to do whatever they want. If there is police brutality, there would be limits for asshole, part-time bouncers who think they're the shit for taking down guys drunk out of their mind. As is the case in most of the law, it probably comes down to whether the behavior is "reasonable."
Maybe the brutes should be using tazers or baseball bats, mace...way to much force, ya, like this chump was gonna hurt the players, gimme a break... security, wannna be cops, need to relax a little...but then again its beantown, a lot of wanna be cope there I hear, Americas sports town, I hear... Home of the free, I hear!!! Yeah right!!!
Stupid rent-a-cops.
Oh yeah one more thing - those rent a cops are really annoying. If someone trespasses on your property, are you allowed to bodyslam him and then do a gangbang on him on the ground? No. Why are those overweight Sullies allowed to do it on the field when the fan is obviously just having a good time and no one is in danger. Oh also, the Red Sox SUCK!
The second angle also frames the reactions of the people in the first row perfectly as well.
