[pr_capone]

LMFAO

[wazu]

Awesome! I'm not familiar with that stadium. Anybody know what he finally disappeared into?

Probably a 6 story freefall.

[Johnny Vegas]

bad to the bone....whats the call blue!!?!

[Easy 6]

I hope he got away, mf'ers chasing him around like he's carrying an AR-15.

[stevieray]

no kidding.

Not a whole lot of room for concealed weapons.

[KcMizzou]

Impressive...lol

[BWillie]

Think he made it out of the stadium unscathed?

[teedubya]

That was great... I've NEVER seen one of these guys get away. Epic.

huh? Every cop slowed up when they got near. Compared to the flying tackles you usually see, this was a very tame response by the cops.

[lcarus]

This is what it takes to make baseball interesting.

That's a concourse where a train runs back and forth. He probably got caught up there, I'm guessing.

[OnTheWarpath15]

I've read that he made it outside the stadium before getting caught.

[doomy3]

That was awesome. He had a good plan going into that.

[alnorth]

I'd like to think that this was a protest against Houston's abomination of a center field, with the hill and the flag pole that was put into the field of play.

Dude is in good shape, that's not an easy haul from looks.

[tk13]

After leaving the stadium, he was captured and questioned by Tommy Lee Jones and invited to join the Men in Black.

[Hammock Parties]

That needs Indiana Jones music.

WTF - he wasn't even streaking? What's the point?

(braces for meetpeeker jokes)

Here's a pretty good article about it. Not "news" but just a discussion of it.

When are all cops going to decide to get into shape and stop being fat and slow so they aren't all embarrassed in situations like this?

[KcMizzou]

When are all cops going to decide to get into shape and stop being fat and slow so they aren't all embarrassed in situations like this?Never. Cops are "regular dudes". They aren't athletes, and most aren't young. In general though, they're good people. Like anything else, you only hear about the bad ones.

And really, a guy running on the field in a baseball game isn't much of a problem.

What exactly is the purpose of that little half circle grass part after the warning track?

Okay, so how do I report you for this post?

Escape route.

[milkman]

I don't want to hear about a steaker pulling anything.

[chefsos]

What exactly is the purpose of that little half circle grass part after the warning track?It's there for the express purpose of pissing alnorth off. Or...In contrast to the ease of hitting a home run to the Crawford Boxes, it is quite difficult to hit a ball out in center field, as the dead-center wall is 436 ft (133 m) from home plate. Fielding is a challenge there as well, due to the 90-foot (27 m) wide center field incline known as Tal's Hill, for team president Tal Smith, an element taken from Crosley Field and other historic ballparks (in a bit of gallows humor, the hill is also known as the "Grassy Knoll"), and the flagpole in play, an element taken from Yankee Stadium before its remodeling in the mid-'70s and Tiger Stadium among others. Milwaukee Brewers player Richie Sexson once hit a ball off the flagpole and there is still a mark there.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minute_Maid_Park

Nope....no problem at all...
