Ahh, but I dare say that was a thong, right ladies? So the crowd at least got a little more of a show.

USA is so lame – they are so puritanical they cannot even get streaking right. To “streak” you need to be naked. Clothes-free. Without covering.

They should fine her twice as much for this reason alone.

There is a video of a fully naked female streaker somewhere in our archives. I’ll see if I can’t track it down for you.

No rugby tackle that I remember, though.

Kudos to FSC for not only showing the lovely lass (which as Laurie pointed out, normally in any sport the TV people never show the streaker, they just show some bored looking players standing around til the streaker is taken off the field); as I say kudos to Fox for not only showing her gleefully trotting around, but then showing a replay of it!

Easily the most thrilling moment of the game.

Ditto Matt.

What I‘d like to see, is for a fully naked female streaker (if that ever happens) to be rugby-tackled the same way the males do, whenever they strut their stuff on the grass. I really wonder if a steward would have the balls to do it…

Whatever you want to call it, I approve and encourage more of it!

Matt, you may be right, but “semi-clothed pitch invader” doesn’t have the same ring. Plus it wouldn’t have fit in my headline.

Laurie, I totally agree with your synopsis on the aesthetic inequalities between male and female (semi) streakers. I hope the new US Women’s League can work to fix this for us.

I hate to discuss semantics, but she was not naked, thus not a streaker. However if females feel the need to run on the field in their undies, I will not argue….:-D
