Bull takes down streaker at Running of the Bulls (video)

There are plenty of normal activities that suddenly become a lot more dangerous when you do them naked, such as cooking, ironing, and carpentry.

But what happens when you combine an already-dangerous activity like running around with bulls with nudity? Well, just watch the genius above.

The best thing about streaking and getting taken down by a bull is that your ability to reproduce is lost so much more efficiently with no pesky clothing to get in the way.

Phillies fan runs on field, gets tased (video)

Jonathan Sacks — Tue, 04 May 2010 03:20:58 +0000

Oh, Philadelphia, thank you for never ceasing to supply us with more fans to mock.

This guy ran on to the field during tonight’s game between the Phillies and Cardinals. Normally, security guards just chase people down and tackle them, but apparently the personnel at Citizens Bank Park have instructions to use heavier force.

Instead of tackling the fan on the field, one security guard tased him instead.

This bad video of the tasing incident comes courtesy of The700Level:

Unfortunately, this brutal statement might keep other idiots from running on the field, which is truly a sad day in the history of baseball. If you can’t puke on fans without getting arrested, and if you can’t run on the field without getting tasered, how are you supposed to have fun at a Phillies game?

Barnsley fans score a goal against Manchester United, whose own fans robbed a food stand

The Carling Cup match between Barnsley and Manchester United featured a result you would expect. But while Man U won 2-0, the best action involved the fans.

In the closing minutes these two fans in the video below combined to strip Manchester United goalkeeper Ben Foster and put the ball in the back of the net with a nice volley.

It’s sad when the players who are on the team are unable to do the same.

A total of eight fans were arrested before, during, and after the match. This includes two people who stood on a railway line, forcing trains to stop.

Several Manchester United fans also broke in to a food kiosk, trapping staff members inside while stealing money from the cash registers and taking all of the food.

Okay, so it wasn’t quite all of the food. Someone appears to have left behind about 3/4ths of a pie. On the bright side, the staff members had nothing to put a way at the end of the night and didn’t have to worry about counting up their sales.

High School Football Fan Attacks Referee With Chair: Video

Jonathan Sacks — Tue, 06 Oct 2009 22:24:27 +0000

Down in Alabama, Hackleburg High School defeated Lynn High School, but not without some controversy. There was a disputed call during the game. It doesn’t matter what the call was, or who was wrong or right because really, it’s just a high school football game, and there are more important things in life, so let’s all move on.

And everyone did move on, except for one rogue man who felt he needed to right the wrong after the final whistle sounded. Around the 1:30 mark of the video, you can begin to see him in the background, scaling a fence. The man then proceeded to run the length of the field so he could smack one of the referees with a chair. The refs all turned the attacker and made quick work of subduing him.

Apparently the Ligues have some family members down in Alabama.

Some folk’ll never attack a referee, but then again, some folk’ll…

CFL Fan Takes Running On The Field To A Whole New Level By Climbing The Goalpost: Video

Jonathan Sacks — Thu, 24 Sep 2009 06:20:50 +0000

Here at Sports Rubbish, we show a lot of videos of people running on to the field. Most of the people running around on fields are at baseball and soccer games. Presumably, people are smart enough to not run around near a bunch of football and rugby players who are accustomed to tackling people violently. That makes this fan at a recent CFL game between the Hamilton Tiger-Cats and Calgary Stampeders even more remarkable.

Not only did he manage to run on the field without being tackled, he then scaled the goalpost, climbing all the way to the top in the process. Once returning to the crossbar, he then tightrope-walked across it and pole-danced on the other side. He eventually lowered himself and was taken away by police.

The video below is even better, if only because the person who films it apologizes for the shakiness, saying it was very cold. Only a Canadian would apologize for something like that, and only Canada would be so cold in mid-September that someone’s arms would begin to shake violently.

Dinamo Bucuresti Fans Invade Pitch, Force Europa League Match Against Slovan Liberec To Be Abandoned: Video

Jonathan Sacks — Thu, 20 Aug 2009 23:19:55 +0000

Slovan Liberec visited Dinamo Bucuresti today and shocked the home crowd by scoring twice. Following Jan Blazek’s goal in the waning minutes, all hell broke lose in the stadium.

First, one fan ran around on the field. This happens all the time of course, but the lone security guard charged with chasing the man failed to apprehend him for an extended period of time, thus requiring help, which then allowed a mass of fans to begin to tear down the perimeter fences and enter the playing area.

At this point, the referee realized that since there were only 2 minutes left in the match, he should just end things and get the hell out of the stadium before he and Slovan Liberec were murdered by Dinamo fans. That was probably a good move. That guy in the referee shirt looked like he meant business.

Shirtless Orioles Fan Runs Across The Field At Camden Yards: Video

Jonathan Sacks — Thu, 20 Aug 2009 22:46:02 +0000

Someone dared this Orioles fan to take off his shirt and run across the outfield at Camden Yards, touch the Southwest Airlines ad, and then come back.

He completed 95% of his task, only to be met by a police officer as he tried to get back to the stands.

I can’t wait until Southwest turns this into a new ad. Wanna get away, indeed.

Here’s another view of the guy running around the field in Baltimore:

Copa Sudamericana Match Abandoned After Fan Attacks Player: Video

Jonathan Sacks — Wed, 12 Aug 2009 21:10:49 +0000

A Copa Sudamericana match between Uruguay’s River Plate and Blooming in Bolivia was stopped with River Plate up 1-0, after a crazy fan ran on the pitch and attacked River Plate’s Henry Gimenez. Some reports say the man, who was tackled by security in riot gear, had a knife.

CONMEBOL inspector Fernando Barriocanal said, “Obviously, there was a security failure. The fan not only entered the field but also hit a player, so the situation is even more serious. The security staff was focused on the game and not on providing security.”

The understanding crowd then accepted that the match was going to be stopped for safety reasons and faded into Bolivian. Just kidding, the Blooming fans then hurled projectiles on the field, hitting some River Plate team members with stones and scaring the daylights out of others with fireworks.

So in case there was any doubt, yes, Bolivian soccer fans are just as insane as those in other South American countries.

Manly Sea Eagles Mascot Fights Fan Who Ran On The Field

Jonathan Sacks — Fri, 31 Jul 2009 05:13:33 +0000

The reason for my lack of posts the last couple of weeks is that I was on vacation in Australia. While I was there, I went to an NRL match, which I will be posting about next week. Unfortunately, I seem to have chosen the wrong match to attend, as the meeting between the Manly-Warringah Sea Eagles and Newcastle Knights featured a fan running on the field to fight the Sea Eagles’ mascot.

The guy obviously picked the wrong mascot to mess with, as the Sea Eagle tackled him. With some help from a real security guard, the man was subdued and removed. And thus, my goal of someday seeing a man fight a mascot in person was narrowly unfulfilled due to my poor choice of a game to attend.

Here’s another video from the brawl:

Loose Chicken On The Field Before Rugby Match Between France and New Zealand: Video

Jonathan Sacks — Thu, 16 Jul 2009 21:12:11 +0000

It’s a slow time of year in sports, so let’s just declare today Chickens Running Around On The Field Day and be done with it.

Following the previous post of a loose chicken during a soccer match, here’s a video of a rooster at a rugby match between France and New Zealand’s All Blacks last month.

This one makes a bit more sense, as the rooster is the mascot of the French rugby team. Some poor security guard is the lone man charged with chasing the cock for the first part of the pursuit, with predictably poor results.

Once the chicken was safely off of the field, the match could begin. Later, a woman ran on the grass, and by this point the security guards had had enough.

Now there’s a solid tackle that will impress the coaches. Maybe that cocky chicken would have hesitated if he’d seen this woman get taken down first.
