The guy got what was coming to him. You run around a field and make a spectacle of yourself like that, what did he think was going to happen? Sure hope it gets thrown out as well.

So a "streaker" (who was wearing underwear, which is NOT streaking) was running around on the field with what looked like only one security guy trying to get him off the field, when the fan ran into a B.C. Lion player who dropped a shoulder into him. The fan has retained a lawyer and likely sue the player and league for his injuries. I really hope that this gets thrown out. Canada has pretty decent health care and if you're going to act like an idiot, you might have to pay a price. I would hazard a guess that he may have had a "mild traumatic brain injury" prior to running onto the field, but I'm not a doctor...I just play one on TV.

From my knowledge of the Canadian legal system, he’s very very unlikely to win. This isn’t the states. Judges throw these common sense cases out.
I'm also on the common sense side as well. It's like the burglar falling through the window during a home burglary and landing on a knife and suing the homeowner for injury. I hope the "streaker" eats all the legal fees. Wasting people's time and resources to make a quick buck after being a complete idiot. Stupidity should not be rewarded.

I watched The Incredibles (first one) and kinda laughed because it's the same-ish idea.
Guys an idiot, but i'm also shocked it took this long for a streaker to do this. I hope he doesn't have brain injuries symptoms for his life though, that's pretty serious stuff he's claiming.

Mild traumatic brain injury = hangover???
if you've seen the hit - yes Young popped him good.. but secondly, Young didn't really pop him. it could have been so, so much worse if he really dropped his shoulder.

Is the guy an idiotic drunk? Definitely but, the players should not get involved with fans regardless of how idiotic they are unless their lives are in danger.
I didn't see any threat to the players and this is an issue for security which was obviously sleeping on the job. How could the guy be out there for that long with no sign of security? Also, would the big tough player have done the same to a female streaker? No. He probably would have hit her up for her number. I do hope this guy sues and wins. The punishment doesn't exactly fit the crime.

If there was someone streaking around your office... and your security guard was not able to catch him... what would you do... just let the guy keep streaking around your office???
This is the CFL (The C stand for Canadian) and in Canada we are usually quite helpful... the player was just helping the security guard. Yes, the hit might have been a bit excessive... he could have just safely tackled him or grabbed on for a hug... but then he is endangering himself because the player does not know how the fan would react. And who is to say the streaker is not on drugs that make them extremely agressive or something.
If the streaker sues and wins... then the Lions should sue because they were pretty nice and supposedly let him off scotch-free for streaking. They felt the embarassment of getting rocked on National TV was enough. haha
