Phillies Fans Will Not Let Promise Of Tasing Prevent Them From Moments Of On-Field Glory
Despite Phillies’ fans pleadings for security to once again subdue an on-field intruder — the team’s second in two games against the St. Louis Cardinals — with a Taser gun, the unidentified 33-year-old who ran on the field during the ninth inning last night was “merely” apprehended by stadium personnel while taking what seems to be a pretty leisurely jog around the Citizens Bank Park warning track. Is hopping out of the stands going to become a thing at Phillies games now? Can’t the team just set up a Phanatic-assisted Drunks Run The Bases post-game promotion in order to cut this sort of behavior off at the pass? (Just be sure that there are vomit buckets at the ready at key points around the diamond, and they’re golden.)
