Taser's?? Really?

At the Cardinals Phillies game Monday night in Philadelphia, a fan was apprehended by a police officer for running onto the field during the 8th inning. Only it was not your normal tackle job, this officer felt the need to zap a 17-year-old teenager with a stun gun. Dropping the poor kid instantly.

Obviously it is totally idiotic to jump a fence at a professional sporting event and run around like a chicken with your head cut-off but then again this kid is 17 and is probably about to graduate high school. How did you act in high school? Ever feel that need to get one last, "Hoo Rah!"

This is not the first time this has happened but honestly, why not just tackle the kid like everyone else? It's not like Usain Bolt was running around out there. Do we really need to resort to zapping him with a thousand volts like Alan and Phil in the 2009 film, The Hangover?

The Cardinals won the game over the Phil's 6-3. The highlight of the night was definitely the little guy getting blasted with the gun. None the less, funny stuff. VIDEO IN 2010 ARCHIVE TO LEFT-
