Stadium jumper is big-time idiot
A man at Yankee Stadium established a new low-water mark for stupid fan behavior. 18-year-old Scott Harper of Westchester County, N.Y. jumped 40 feet from the upper deck onto the screen behind home plate during last night's game between the New York Yankees and Chicago White Sox.
He was released from the hospital and handed over to police today. Harper is charged with reckless endangerment and disorderly conduct.
If stupidity was a felony charge, Harper would probably go to prison for life. He told friends that he wanted to see if the netting would hold his weight. What an idiot! I hope the legal system doesn't go easy on him.
