New details have emerged in the case of the recent baseball game streaker. The identity of the prankster has been revealed.
It turns out that the streaker was not only a Texas A&M student, but he was also a member of the Aggies’ athletic department.
A Tuesday night meeting between Texas and Texas A&M was interrupted midgame due to the antics of a crowd member. A man was seen running onto the field with a Star Wars mask, a sign, and a message across his chest.
The sign read, “Longhorns Suck,” while the writing on his chest appeared to say, “Trump 2024.”
Upon storming onto the diamond, the runner ditched the sign and dropped his trousers enough for the crowd to see his backside. He then rushed to center field where he hopped over the wall.
After climbing the fence, he was met by police and quickly detained.
