If a guy is gonna get tasered, he shoulda been streaking! Make the pain worth it. What a fun catch for the challenge.

That's insane. I need to hear more about this. Although the fact that it's in Philly doesn't surprise me ; ). A very interesting shot.

No way! You were there???
Not the best shot in the world, but still pretty good and this is amazing for the moment!
You could have sold this to a newspaper or something

I just saw this (story) on the news. Pretty extreme, but I guess it will cut down on fans running onto the field. Wild catch.
