The Padres should employ streakers

Listen to the crowd erupt in cheers when these three teenagers take off their shirts and run out on the field during last night's game.

I think the Padres should employ streakers to run out there between innings.  They'd be more popular than the Pad Squad.  Hell, you could even dress the Pad Squad up in street clothes and make them do it.  Then you get to see your favorite Squadders take a beating from security, which is my dream.  The fans would love it and security would be able to practice their technique.  Have you ever heard fans so happy in all your life?  You can hear some guy giggling with delight as he watches one of them slide into home plate.  I love it that the other guy just gets too tired from evading security, so he touches third base then just collapses and lays down on the field.

I bet these guys really piss off Luke Yoder, head grounds crew guy.  Nobody is allowed on his grass.  The grounds crew is so annoying, more streakers less field maintenance! Get rid of the stupid dancing grounds crew rake guy and replace him with streakers!

Are you a streaking purist

you frown upon wearing pants?

Exactly

although I’ve been known to make exceptions for female streakers, God bless them.

Speaking of female streakers...

Someone sooner or later will post this video of the soccer streaker (NSFW, especially at around :20), so you’re welcome. Pervs.

Streakers Have More Moves than Rake Guy

“Get rid of the stupid dancing grounds crew rake guy and replace him with streakers!”

Good call. I’m optimistic that the streakers would not perform the same tired routine over and over and would spare us the Roger Rabbit and Cabbage Patch and we can hope that they would not get big heads and take to pointing at sections of the crowd while thrusting their hips.

caught a little of this

on channel 4…. right as they were going to commercial break. Fly ball hit deep to Headley, he goes back to catch it and then turns around and “plop” a kid in camo shorts jumps down over the left field wall and starts heading straight towards Headley. It was pretty funny to watch because Headley had a brief moment of panic where he starts to turn real fast and run back towards the dugout. They went to commercial break before they showed anything else but I rewinded my DVR and watched it in slow mo a few times.

Glad someone got a full video of this though, doesn’t happen nearly enough at PETCO

Note to would be streakers

Don’t announce your plan to streak in advance of the date, especially if you post your picture.

Spoiler alert…the Cardinals staff knew about her and tackled her before she could get near the field.

Yeah, no kidding

Harry told me these yayhoos spent some time in the Petco Pokey.
Then, they get fined $1,500.

I took some pics just in case they had to prove these dumbazzes were actually out there.

"streakerz?"

Best part of the game – trumped Fielder’s lazer home run. Nice to see some team speed on the field for a change. I was at the game and that was the only bright spot! The pads are a 2 martini (at least) team!
