Storming the court/rushing the field

I remember Butch from JT the Brick’s overnight show.

 

If anyone still has a crush on Drew Barrymore and would like to rid themselves of that crush, I would recommend watching a few minutes of her talk show. It's not just bad. She will absolutely give you the creeps.

 

My sister - not a sports fan- was at the game. I don't remember if she made it on to the field or just told us that others went.

 

For beating the No. 17 team in the country? FFS.

Fans storm court after LSU Men's Basketball beat Kentucky 75-74

 

Today might be the last day for court storming.

 

I can now think of one.

 

Jim Phillips, please pick up the white courtesy phone.

Caitlin Clark almost got hurt because of this. But she's just a girl.

Will what happened to Kyle Filipowski finally get someone high enough to make clear this stops?

 

Ok, how does it stop? You arrest everyone who goes on the court? Either you need 50 cops at every Top 25 road game (plus random rivalries) or you spend weeks combing over ESPN footage to ID suspects. Mob psychology is scary but it’s real.

 

Well, I never said I had the answer ...

 

The SEC policy, which makes offenders pay the opponent a six-figure sum, is a good start.
Place 10 people in security garb along the baselines in the final seconds and you definitely make some people change their minds and decide not to bother.
The ACC is the only league without a policy in place.

 

1. Sometime in the '90s, ETSU beat App State for the first time in a lot of years. The AD opened the gate and was encouraging the student section to storm the field. They said, "Naaaaaaaa."

2. I think the only way to stop incidents like today's is if people storm the court, your next home game is behind closed doors in an empty arena. Students storming the court don't care if the school is fined. If a school has to return money to pissed off ticket holders, that will be their financial penalty.
