Citi Field First: Naked Man Runs On Field, Disgraces Mr. Met

Photographs of the naked fan who tried to run onto CitiField by Frank Franklin II/AP

Those of you at home watching tonight's Mets-Braves game missed out (fortunately?) from seeing an essentially naked man run onto the field. While the SNY cameras were trained on Omir Santos at bat during the fifth inning, this is what our own Tien Mao witnessed: "He was wearing a thong with a Mr. Met doll covering his penis. And he slid into 2nd and again in the outfield before being stopped by security. Mr Met was crying and shaking his head afterwards. "

Put it ON! Put it ON!

Here's a great idea:

Instead of reporting the story, sans pictures, let's put pictures of the idiot on a major website to give him the attention he craves.

On the bright side, it will be easy for Mr. Met to show police on the doll where the bad man touched him.

see, this is why it's such a problem that the cameras are almost always solely on the pitcher and batter when the ball isn't in yet in play!
