There’s no telling what you’ll during a soccer game overseas.  Soccer matches in the U.S. are as tame as public libraries whereas matches overseas are your more Pacman Jones’ establishment variety.

Following a goal by Ekrem Dag of Gaziantepspor (details), some dum-dum ran onto the pitch (soccer term) and took Dag’s jersey.  Then it was on.  After running like he stole it (naturally), said dum-dum got temporarily spooked by a security guard wearing a faded blue Rite Aid vest and chucked the jersey into the stands.  #78, a color blind son of a gun, got confused whether he should continue the act or surrender.

In the end, a man in a tie (we’ll call him Lassie) ended up playing the role of good guy and returned the jersey to Dag.  All in a day’s work.
