Shirtless Fan Runs Onto The Field And Gets Tackled By NFL Player

A Green Bay Packers fan learned a painful lesson about why it's not a good idea to run onto the field during a game, even if it is only the preseason.
The shirtless fan ran onto Lambeau Field during the Packers' preseason game against the Kansas City Chiefs and managed to avoid over a dozen security guards and police officers who were chasing after him. As the fan juked around the field, Chiefs' safety Harold Jones-Quartey, who is 5'11" and weighs 215 pounds, closed in on him and slammed him into the grass near the 25-yard line.
The fan, who was not identified, was taken off the field by security and will likely face charges along with a lifetime ban from Lambeau field.
A couple of fans who were smart enough to stay in their seats recorded the wild scene and shared their videos on Twitter.
