The photos of a fan who did a backflip and got Tased invading the Reds' field are wild
This was wild.
Here’s a good way to warn you: running on to the field as a fan may end up badly for you, legally or otherwise.
What’s the context here? A Cincinnati Reds fan ran on to the field on Tuesday during their game against the Cleveland Guardians at Great American Ballpark, and as he was chased by a security guard, he stopped, did standing backflip and kept running.
But then … the guard brought out a Taser down went the fan as he was taken away.
You can see the videos of the moment below, but the photos from Getty Images’s Andy Lyons are stunning.
I’ve never seen a fan on the field get tased in the 17 years I’ve worked online. What a content moment. pic.twitter.com/ToAK7kA9uN
